HP gnu source-level debugger 5992-4701 - Manual (Page 244)

When you execute the program up to the first breakpoint by issuing the command
run
a right angle bracket (>) points to the current location. So after you issue those
commands, the window looks something like this:

(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x3524: file average.c, line 32.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/work/wdb/a.out
Breakpoint 1, main () at average.c:32

15.2 Automatically running a program at startup
WDB does not start running the target executable at startup as do `xdb' and HP DDE.
This makes it easy to set break points before the target program's main function.
To make WDB automatically start running the target program add these lines to your
startup file, .gdbinit:
break main
run
