##  Summary trepanx

The trepanning debugger gdb-like debugger. As such, it is both a high-level and low-level debugger. It is a also a rewrite of *ruby-debug*.

## Installing

```console

   gem install rbx-trepanning

```

If you want to run from git:

```console

   $ git clone https://github.com/rocky/rbx-trepanning.git

   $ cd rbx-trepanning

   $ bundle install      # load dependent packages

   $ rake test           # test it

   $ rake install        # install it

```

should get you going.

## Running

To run initially:

```console

  $ trepanx my-ruby-program.rb

```

Or to call from inside your code:

```console

  require 'trepanning'

  debugger # Don't stop here...

  work # but stop here.

```

If you want an immediate stop:

```console

  debugger(:immediate=>true)

```

Finally, if you put in your _.trepanx_

```ruby

    Rubinius::Loader.debugger = proc {

      require 'trepanning';

      Trepan.start(:skip_loader => :Xdebug)

    }

```

Then you can use the _-Xdebug_ option the Ruby, e.g.

```

  rbx -Xdebug my-ruby-program.rb

```
