I am just starting to use C++, and have run into a problem that I'm
sure others have encountered.  I'm loathe to retreat to debugging via
inserting print statements, so I'd like to use some debugger or
another, such as dbx or gdb (of course, a Lisp-like C++-specific
debugging environment would be best, but...).  Unfortunately, the
symbols all get weird names, with gratuitous underscores thrown in,
etc.  Could people give me some advice on any way to use reasonably
high-level tools to debug C++?
