3# If you use the GNU debugger gdb to debug the Python C runtime, you
4# might find some of the following commands useful. Copy this to your
5# ~/.gdbinit file and it'll get loaded into gdb automatically when you
6# start it up. Then, at the gdb prompt you can do things like:
7#
8# (gdb) pyo apyobjectptr
9# <module 'foobar' (built-in)>
10# refcounts: 1
11# address : 84a7a2c
12# $1 = void
13# (gdb)
14
15# Prints a representation of the object to stderr, along with the
16# number of reference counts it current has and the hex address the
17# object is allocated at. The argument must be a PyObject*
