Crashes on different tasks. Using magit, some times C-x C-f.  But one reliable
way was, selecting a url in a buffer with M-x ffap and RET.

Turns out, I don't even know how to run those commands and get the output from
gnome-terminal. With the execution of first command above, bidi.c file came
out in a little box on the top of gnome-terminal which is hindering me to copy
and paste.

Anyway, I tried "M-x gud-gdb" first time ever and got this, let me know I made
a mistake in executing listed commands.
