Feature request: Replicate the GUD tool bar (in tool-bar-mode) for convenient mouse usage

[phil-s]

This would be a useful enhancement to the UI, and relevant icons are already included in Emacs.

E.g. gdb uses:

(setq-local tool-bar-map gud-tool-bar-map)

and the tool bar definition is:

(defvar gud-tool-bar-map
  (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))
    (dolist (x '((gud-break . "gud/break")
		 (gud-remove . "gud/remove")
		 (gud-print . "gud/print")
		 (gud-pstar . "gud/pstar")
		 (gud-pp . "gud/pp")
		 (gud-watch . "gud/watch")
		 (gud-run . "gud/run")
		 (gud-go . "gud/go")
		 (gud-stop-subjob . "gud/stop")
		 (gud-cont . "gud/cont")
		 (gud-until . "gud/until")
		 (gud-next . "gud/next")
		 (gud-step . "gud/step")
		 (gud-finish . "gud/finish")
		 (gud-nexti . "gud/nexti")
		 (gud-stepi . "gud/stepi")
		 (gud-up . "gud/up")
		 (gud-down . "gud/down")
		 (gud-goto-info . "info"))
	       map)
      (tool-bar-local-item-from-menu
       (car x) (cdr x) map gud-minor-mode-map))))

Hey!

I agree! If you have the time and have done your FSF assignment feel free to submit an PR. If not I will get around to it eventually.

I've done my FSF copyright assignment for Emacs, yes. I'm not sure I'll get to it in a timely manner, so if you feel inspired then please do beat me to it :) Hopefully I can take a stab at it sometime soon, though.
