No worries.

There will clearly be cases where it is beneficial.  Along with all the other testing improvements we need to do in our spare time, it might be good to write some tests for these formatters so they don't regress if they have.

To use the gdb ones, you have to cd into the gdb directory, and debug from there.  That works but is a little inelegant.  I don't have a better idea right now, but it would be cool to come up with a way to do the same thing in lldb, so that if you're debugging lldb you get both useful formatters for lldb & llvm/clang.

:)

The .lldbinit thing would work for me pretty well. When doing debugging from the console, I generally `cd` into the build directory already. If xcode has some "initial debugger commands" option we could use it to load that file and make that use case work as well. I'll see if I can get around to doing that.
