# This module will enable GDB remote packet logging when the 
# 'start_gdb_log' command is called with a filename to log to. When the
# 'stop_gdb_log' command is called, it will disable the logging and 
# print out statistics about how long commands took to execute and also
# will primnt ou
# Be sure to add the python path that points to the LLDB shared library.
#
# To use this in the embedded python interpreter using "lldb" just
# import it with the full path using the "command script import" 
# command. This can be done from the LLDB command line:
#   (lldb) command script import /path/to/gdbremote.py
# Or it can be added to your ~/.lldbinit file so this module is always
# available.
