    <title>Inspect an expression and modify a variable</title>

	<p>While you are debugging a program, you can find out the value
	of an expression or variable while the program is paused.
	It is also sometimes useful to change the value of a variable.</p>

    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>From the <gui>main menu</gui>, select <guiseq><gui>Debug</gui>
        <gui>Inspect/Evaluate...</gui></guiseq> or right click in the
        <gui>Editor</gui> window and select <gui>Inspect/Evaluate...</gui>.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>If the expression is a variable name, you can change its value
        by clicking on the <gui>Value</gui> column and entering a new value.</p>
