It is possible, yes. Easy? Maybe not so much.

There are two ways to accomplish your specific task.

First, the ugly, but more integrated way, is to hack at 
gdbtk/library/regwin.it[hb]. The code there is actually fairly recent 
and clean.

The more formal way, but less integrated, is to create a plug-in. To do 
that, follow the directions in gdbtk/library/plugins/HOW-TO. WARNING: I 
haven't looked at these directions in quite some time, they may be 
slightly outdated. But I doubt much has changed since there have been no 
plug-ins written in a very long time. If you find problems with the 
HOW-TO, just send a note to this list so that I can address them.

In lieu of that, or in addition to that, you can follow the either the 
example plug-in (gdbtk/library/plugins/rhabout) and/or the (very simple) 
Pentium plug-in (gdbtk/library/plugins/intel-pentium).

Again, if you run into problems or have any questions, just send a note 
to this list, and I'll try to get your questions answered as best as 
possible.
