+Remote attaching to a running Python process with PDB
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+The :mod:`pdb` module now supports remote attaching to a running Python process
+using a new ``-p PID`` command-line option:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+   python -m pdb -p 1234
+
+This will connect to the Python process with the given PID and allow you to
+debug it interactively. Notice that due to how the Python interpreter works
+attaching to a remote process that is blocked in a system call or waiting for
+I/O will only work once the next bytecode instruction is executed or when the
+process receives a signal.
+
+This feature leverages :pep:`768` and the :func:`sys.remote_exec` function
+to attach to the remote process and send the PDB commands to it.
