Hi,
     while debugging a program I've found that the print command truncates some 
long strings:

(gdb) p (char*)format
$7 = 0xd47e058 "datetime.h: a long long long long long long long long long long 
long long long long long long long long long long long string"...

I need to explore the content of the string and want GDB to print it entirely... 
how can I do?


Thanks a lot!
Francesco
