If you want to attach an existing debugger, look at the documentation
for that debugger (in gdb, it's ``gdb <program_name> <pid of program>'').
If you're thinking of writing your own, have a look at man ptrace.
This isn't the clearest of documents, so you may want to have a look
at the source to a few programs which use it, like gdb, strace, or
ltrace, before starting on your own.
