gdb:  gnu debugger. :)  It's the standard C/C++ debugging tool in Linux 
land, or at least used to be.

It's a command-line tool, as you guessed, but fear not:  Visual Studio 
too uses several command-line tools as backend and so can you by 
downloading an IDE such as KDevelop or perhaps Eclipse with the C/C++ 
plugin.  They integrate (or hide) gdb as well as gcc under a pretty 
graphical face.

Still, man gdb, man! :D
