+# Pretty printers for Eigen::Matrix
+# Author: Benjamin Schindler <bschindler@inf.ethz.ch>
+# This is still pretty basic as the python extension to gdb is still pretty basic. 
+# It cannot handle complex eigen types and it doesn't support any of the other eigen types
+# Such as quaternion or some other type. 
+# This code supports fixed size as well as dynamic size matrices
+# Licence - ment to be included in Eigen, so dual GPLv3 or LGPL
+# NOTE: This code was only tested with the stable branch of eigen!
