<h3 class="section">28.2 The Server Prefix</h3>
<a name="index-server-prefix"></a>
<p>If you prefix a command with &lsquo;<samp>server </samp>&rsquo; then it will not affect
the command history, nor will it affect <small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s notion of which
command to repeat if <tt class="key">RET</tt> is pressed on a line by itself. This
means that commands can be run behind a user&rsquo;s back by a front-end in
a transparent manner.
</p>
<p>The <code>server </code> prefix does not affect the recording of values into
the value history; to print a value without recording it into the
value history, use the <code>output</code> command instead of the
<code>print</code> command.
</p>
<p>Using this prefix also disables confirmation requests
(see <a href="Messages_002fWarnings.html#confirmation-requests">confirmation requests</a>).
