I've just downloaded the Linux version of Code::Blocks for my laptop. It is really useful!
It would be great having the console window when we are in debug mode as in the
Windows version.

When debugging programs with lines asking for an input,  that is a real problem. We
do not have any interaction with the program.

Thanks a lot!

dmoore:
As a short term fix, can you just use "Debug -> Send user command to debugger" to send your input? (I'm assuming gdb will just pass this information onto your program if they share the same stdin, but maybe not...)

elindio:
Actually I can't...

When the program is waiting for the input, the button "Debug->Send user command to debugger" is disabled.

Whenever that button is enabled is to send some command to gdb,... but it does not work for the inputs.

Thanks though.
