GDB has its own history feature, activated by the GDB command "set history
save on".  If the GDB history file is detected when "M-x gdb" starts, it
will read the history and fill comint-input-ring with what it finds there.
See the function 'gdb' in gdb-mi.el.

So I think this is already covered, or what did I miss?

Thanks.
