I have been using gdb (3.4) from within emacs (18.55.3), and I have not
been able to figure out how to use all of the GDB commands from here.
Specifically, I am interested in symbol completion, which uses the
characters TAB and M-?.  These work just fine when I invoke gdb from the
shell. Unfortunately, emacs interprets these characters,
so GDB never gets them.  What do I have to do to get the expected
behavior?  Is there an easy fix to put in .emacs or .gdbinit?

Thanks a lot for your help.
