cmd_show_list function implements the 'show' command.
cmd_show_list output is inconsistent: it sometimes shows a prefix
and sometimes does not.
For example, in the below, you see that there is a prefix before
each value, except for 'enabled'.
(gdb) show style
style address background: The "address" style background color is: none
style address foreground: The "address" style foreground color is: blue
style address intensity: The "address" style display intensity is: normal
enabled: CLI output styling is enabled.
style filename background: The "filename" style background color is: none
...
There are other inconsistencies or bugs e.g. in
the below we see twice insn-number-max, once with a prefix
and once without prefix : last line, just before the value of
instruction-history-size which is itself without prefix.
(gdb) show record
record btrace bts buffer-size: The record/replay bts buffer size is 65536.
record btrace cpu: btrace cpu is 'auto'.
record btrace pt buffer-size: The record/replay pt buffer size is 16384.
record btrace replay-memory-access: Replay memory access is read-only.
record full insn-number-max: Record/replay buffer limit is 200000.
record full memory-query: Whether query if PREC cannot record memory change of next instruction is off.
record full stop-at-limit: Whether record/replay stops when record/replay buffer becomes full is on.
function-call-history-size: Number of functions to print in "record function-call-history" is 10.
insn-number-max: instruction-history-size: Number of instructions to print in "record instruction-history" is 10.
(gdb)
Also, some values are output several times due to some aliases, so avoid outputting duplicated
values by skipping all aliases.
Now that the command structure has a correct 'back-pointer' from a command
to its prefix command, we can simplify cmd_show_list by removing its prefix argument
and at the same time fix the output inconsistencies and bugs.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
