If you add a watch for a set variable you by default get the value in dotted display like this:

MyVar [firstvalue ... lastvalue]

Unfortunately this only helps if you know all the values that are between the two given ones. And usually, you don't. (OK, usually I don't, you of course do. ;-) )

There is, however, the undocumented display format modifier "e", that changes this display to much the more convenient:

MyVar,e [firstvalue, secondvalue, thirdvalue, lastvalue]

Now, if only that was the default....
