I don’t know if `pwndbg’ does this (or some other add-on maybe) but something I’ve haven’t seen since macsbug on a classic Mac: when stepping through a disassembly at a conditional branch, the PC line will state whether the branch will be taken and the target address. Saves all that tedious mucking about for the status register.

Not only does it do this, it does all kinds of forward emulation, thanks to Unicorn.

This also works for stepping through e.g. ROP gadgets during exploitation.

Hi! Great plugin, though I haven't explored it very much at all. I hope to do so over the next few weeks as I get started with the basics of binary exploits. Once I have some more experience I'll let you know. I think my issue is more with base GDB, not your project.
