## Alternative display formats
The CBL-GDB debugger that VSC relies on has the ability to display variables in both hex and binary. Although there is no way to tell VSC to use those methods directly, you can invoke them in the command line field of the DEBUG CONSOLE
Entering `cprint/x custmas-ctr` displays the variable in hexadecimal. `cprint/b custmas-ctr` displays the variable in binary.
## "Break on variable change"
Visual Studio Code has no provision for activating GDB's "variable watch" feature, which allows for "break when a variable changes". You can activate that feature from the command line entry field in VSC's DEBUG CONSOLE. For example, entering `watch custmas-ctr` in that field will cause execution to break when that variable's data changes.
