After I have done a little work, I found out that (based on my machine):
   adb - is an assembly language debugger, and can also debug binary
         files.
   sdb - is a symbolic debugger for C, Fortran-77.
   gdb - is a source level symbolic debugger for C, and has something
         of the flavor of dbx, but has more features and power.
         (Since I've never used dbx, I can't compare gdb w/ dbx.)
   cdb - is a debugger for C, Fortran, and assembly programs, and the
         two main differences between cdb and other debuggers are:
            + cdb can attach to an existing process.
            + cdb can be used to debug multiple processes as will as
              a single process.
So, that is it all.
And again, thanks for all previous advice.
- Clement.
