Referencing Variables

Once in the debugger, the current value of any variable may be examined (and optionally changed) using the forms:

*/var	Accesses a plain variable and displays its current value.
*/var [position,length]	Accesses a string of length characters starting from character position in the string specified in position.
*/dim.array.var(row)	Accesses a single-dimensioned array variable. With the subscript designated, only that element displays.
*/dim.array.var	If a dimensioned array is referenced without a subscript, each element displays. To exit this display without stepping through all of the elements, press BREAK, or enter any non-null value.
*/dim.array.var(row,col)	Accesses a specific location of a two-dimensional array. See the above form for array references without subscripts.
*/dyn.array.var <(amc{,vmc{,svm}})>	Accesses the specific location of a dynamic array.
/	Displays the current assignment of every variable in the program.

In general, access types can be combined, as in:

*/var{(row{,col})}{<amc{,vmc{,svm}}>}{[position,length]}

In each of the above cases (except the * form), the operator is given the opportunity to change the requested value. If you press ENTER at the = prompt, the symbol remains unchanged; otherwise, any value typed is placed into the symbol.
