** Hacks
- Enables ~gdb-many-windows-mode~ in ~gdb-mode~ by default
- Patches [[doom-package:realgud]] to open in a popup window. This causes realgud
bindings to focus the command window.
- Closes [[doom-package:realgud]]'s command buffer after the session ends.

*** C, C++, Rust, Golang
Needs [[https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/lldb/tools/lldb-vscode][lldb-vscode]]. Install LLDB from your package manager.
* Usage
Start a debugging session with ~M-x +debugger/start~ (bound to [[kbd:][SPC o d]] in evil).
You'll be prompted to select a debugger preset if this is the first time you've
used it. Otherwise, it will use the last preset automatically. Use the
universal/prefix argument to invoke this prompt again: [[kbd:][SPC u SPC o d]] or [[kbd:][C-u C-c
o d]]. The last used configuration is stored for each project individually.
*Fedora:*
#+begin_src sh
dnf install lldb
#+end_src
~M-x +debugger/start-last~ starts the last used debug configuration, if it
exists, and prints a message otherwise instead of offering a selection.
* TODO Usage
Once the session is started, it can be terminated by ~M-x +debugger/quit~ or by
using the mode-specific way.

*** How to add a debug configuration
1. Call ~dap-gdb-lldb-setup~ function.
2. Use ~dap-debug-edit-template~ to configure debugging settings for your
project. [[github:WebFreak001/code-debug/blob/master/package.json#L72][Available settings can be inspected here.]] Call ~eval-buffer~ to save
your settings. *Don't save the file!*
3. Call ~dap-debug~, select a configuration and start debugging.
