Is there any GUI for either GDB or LLDB? Most cases, I don't think "writing macros to do complicated things" is a path walkable for me, especially as I mostly want to do simple things.
VS Code (as well as Codium) uses gdb for debugging
Visual Studio Code (and its free as in freedom variants like Codium) has the CodeLLDB extension. I'm unsure if something similar exists for GDB.
And if you're using Jetbrains, most (all?) of their products have a suitable GUI debugger baked in.
I was gonna say Ctrl+X Ctrl+A but that's a TUI.
And cgdb is kind of the same but with better controls and syntax coloration.
DDD? Dunno if that's to your taste, nor what state it's in lately but... maybe it qualifies? :3
