displaying variables in gdb mode

Hello,

after a few problems, I got very much used to debug my code with M-x gdb 
in xemacs. It's just the fastest way to check a few things. But I am 
missing one feature that seems to exist in emacs ( no "x" ) gdb mode: Can 
I move the mouse over a variable and get its content displayed as "balloon 
help" or anything similar ? I don't want to always type "print 
VariableBlaBla" ...

Thanks for any help,

Recent gdb-mode uses functionality and APIs that are very different in
GNU Emacs from XEmacs.  We're working on the port (specifically Jerry
James is).  Please bring this up on xemacs-beta <at> xemacs.org.
