Copy & Paste

[Bennett Barouch]

Let's say you see that one of your variables holds some long string value, and you want to copy that so you can do something with it outside of MacGDBp. There doesn't seem to be a way to copy and paste out of MacGDBp -- Am I missing something?

You can use the Inspector window to view the full contents of the variable, as well as copying it. You can also use the Eval tab and just enter `$variable` to see the contents of the variable.

By the Inspector window, I assume you mean the "Variables" window. How exactly do you copy a value from there? On a Mac, I can't select, ctl-click, opt-click, or anything else of that sort to copy a value, and the Copy, Cut, Paste items on the Edit menu are greyed out. In the Eval window, if I type in a variable and hit Enter, usually nothing is displayed, sometimes it shows the value, and sometimes the program just freezes.

No, I mean the dedicated Inspector palette available via either the Window menu in the main menu bar or the toolbar button.

Wow. I never knew about that. Pretty not-intuitive, but thank you VERY much!
