Yet Another gdb TUI. Connect remotely with gdb when you don't have a working gdbserver, and show a tui inspired by gef.

• No gdbserver requirements: Many vendors ship invalid gdbserver binaries, this works on remote targets with just gdb, nc, cat, and mkfifo.
• No python requirements: Many vendors ship gdb without python support.
• Architecture agnostic: heretek only uses information given by gdb, no extra code required!

Either build from published source in crates.io.

$ cargo install heretek --locked

Or download from github releases.
