Sure - in the console portion of the debugger (I'm assuming you're using
Project Builder) type
po myNSString
This tells the object 'myNSString' to run it's 'description' method.
You can override 'description' in your own objects to get a nice
debugger description of 'em. 'description' is inherited from NSObject.

Really, really useful, especially on NSArray's and NSDictionary's.

In projectBuilder when debugging is it possible to see the
