Notice that for LLDB, PDB and RDebug you use "python_lldb", "python" and

(LLDB is called by a python wrapper because the LLDB executable has no
machine interface like GDB to interact with).
You can set multiple versions for each debugger, by appending the version name
to the debugger name with "_". These versions will be used when the "version"

The *VBGstartGDBForD* command is the same as VBGstartGDB but for Dlang

LAUNCHING LLDB *vebugger-lldb*
LLDB can be launched with *vebugger#lldb#start*
>
call vebugger#lldb#start('a.out',{'args':['hello','world']})
<
The supported extra arguments are:
* "args": Command line arguments for the debugged program
* "pid": Process id to attach to
You can't specify both "args" and "pid".
LLDB can also be launched with the *VBGstartLLDB* command:
>
VBGstartLLDB a.out hello world
<
The *VBGattachLLDB* command searches for processes launched from the EXE to
attach to, and attaches to them:
>
VBGattachLLDB a.out
<
VBGattachLLDB accepts as a second argument the process ID of the process to
attach to.
LAUNCHING JDB *vebugger-jdb*
JDB is launched with *vebugger#jdb#start*
