Thread: Using commands in Emacs

hi. have open file in emacs called insertion_sort_in_c.c.
have found commands in web such c-x 2 (split emacs screen).
in emacs under 'tools' option have selected 'shell command' feature.
@ bottom of emacs window command line prompt awaiting command.
in prompt typed 'c-x 2' reply '/bin/bash: c-x: command not found'
typed 'm-x gdb' command initiate debugger '/bin/bash: m-x: command not found' came up
run debugger 'tools' tab , (gdb) prompt came up. typed 'break 11' enter breakpoint in line 11 of insertion_sort_in_c.c warning: 'no symbol table loaded. use "file" command' came up.

thought when debugger running left-click in fringe red disk appears (a breakpoint). nothing happens.

there wrong emacs/gdb?
