  79. <p>The <small>GDB</small> Text User Interface (TUI) is a terminal
  80. interface which uses the <code>curses</code> library to show the source
  81. file, the assembly output, the program registers and <small>GDB</small>
  82. commands in separate text windows. The TUI mode is supported only
  83. on platforms where a suitable version of the <code>curses</code> library
  84. is available.
  85. </p>
  86. <p>The TUI mode is enabled by default when you invoke <small>GDB</small> as
  87. &lsquo;<samp>gdb -tui</samp>&rsquo;.
  88. You can also switch in and out of TUI mode while <small>GDB</small> runs by
  89. using various TUI commands and key bindings, such as <code>tui
  90. enable</code> or <kbd>C-x C-a</kbd>. See <a href="TUI-Commands.html#TUI-Commands">TUI Commands</a>, and
  91. <a href="TUI-Keys.html#TUI-Keys">TUI Key Bindings</a>.
