Well, it happens:

 - if I press C-x C-f in 'emacsclient -t' xterm

OR

 - focus to X11 frame
 - focus back to 'emacsclient -t' xterm
 - press any key

Okay. Do you know any way to prevent GDB from paging the output (i.e. printing
"press enter to continue message"), which becomes annoying when capturing a
streaming output like this ?

Thanks
