GDB is the GNU Debugger. It can be used to get information about crashes, including backtraces, which can be very helpful to the programmers when you report bugs.

The latest debug build of the OHRRPGCE is available here: ohrrpgce-wip-fb-sdl-debug.zip. It runs a bit slower than the regular build, but when used together with gdb, it can provide useful information about crashes.
If you are using Linux, you probably already have gdb, but if you are using Windows, you will need to install it.
MinGW distributes a Windows version of gdb. You can get the latest gdb installer here
Then run the installer, and it will install gdb.
gdb will not show up in your start menu. It is a command-line program. From a command-line prompt, you can type:
c:\mingw\bin\gdb.exe game.exe
Or you can create a batch file with the same command in it.
To start playing your game, type run
If your game crashes, type backtrace to get useful information that you can can paste into a bug report
When finished, type quit
Type help for a list of the many other commands.
If gdb says:
No executable specified, use `target exec'.
That means it wasn't able to find your copy of game.exe. This might mean that you need to put the full-path in your batch file, like this:
c:\mingw\bin\gdb.exe c:\ohrrpgce\game.exe
or maybe
c:\mingw\bin\gdb.exe "c:\Documents and Settings\My User Name\Desktop\OHRRPGCE\game.exe"
You can also just type something like at the (gdb) prompt:
target exec c:\ohrrpgce\game.exe
