vtrace – very promising-looking debugger

Documented commands (type help <topic>):
========================================
alias     bpedit  detach  ignore      meta    resume    stepi    vstruct
alloc     bpfile  dis     lm          mode    script    struct   writemem
attach    break   eval    maps        ps      search    suspend
autocont  bt      exec    mem         python  server    syms   
bestname  call    fds     memdump     quit    signal    threads
bp        config  go      memprotect  reg     snapshot  var

So this looks pretty promising… a call function to call things right from the executing program? a python shell? pretty neat-o. I’ve barely started experimenting on it, but it looks very good so far… seriously, like what other alternative do those of us in the linux world have, gdb? Anyway, this programatic stuff has some interesting possibilities that other more traditional debuggers (eg ollydbg) don’t really have. I love the python shell, so anyways, stay tuned.
