Alas, no. DDD is not user-programmable. You'd need to extend its C++
source code, which is a non-trivial task.
However, you can export the GDB command interface to the controlling
tty, using `ddd --tty'; you can then easily send GDB commands and
parse the output, using a programming language of your choice.
For instance, I have written a simple Python class which talks to GDB
in order to read program memory; this class might as well talk to `ddd
--tty' instead. For more details on `--tty', see the DDD manual.
