cgdb prints these symbols in terminal: [32m <some string> [m.

It is the "gdb" part of the program that does that. The "cgdb" part(or window, you name it), prints to terminal in colors. I had installed cgdb from the Linux Mint packages repository and hoped it will run well.

How can I remove the "noise" output from cgdb ?

You probably want `set style enabled off`. – ssbssa Jan 02 '21 at 02:23
@ssbssa no, I want styles stay. – user14063792468 Jan 02 '21 at 09:50
According to [this](https://github.com/cgdb/cgdb/issues/224), it should work with the latest cgdb. – ssbssa Jan 09 '21 at 15:19
@ssbssa You shoud've mantioned that one has to compile and install it from `git`. – user14063792468 Jan 09 '21 at 22:48
According to its [NEWS](https://github.com/cgdb/cgdb/blob/master/NEWS#L112), this should work since version 0.7.0. – ssbssa Jan 10 '21 at 00:57
@ssbssa I did mention in a question that I installed from repo. No matter github. Nevertheless it is resolved. – user14063792468 Jan 10 '21 at 01:11
So when you say repository, you don't mean git? – ssbssa Jan 10 '21 at 10:21
@ssbssa I will change wording. No I did not mean github. I did mean `linux mint` distro with its repository. – user14063792468 Jan 10 '21 at 20:16

@Ziv Hello, the problem is that my distro has(had?) old version of a program. I had installed one from `git` and all is well now. – user14063792468 Mar 02 '21 at 12:01
