Could be displayed as sub bytes:

00001000-00000001-11011111-10000001

or nibbles

0000-1000-0000-0001

Nice idea. This prolong lines for a bit. In some application I use different colors to visualize group of numbers. When color are used then length is not changed.

That would be a great feature ! Any thing that can speed up the debug process is greatly appreciated

That's a nice idea! I would also like these displayed as strings (currently they're not): char* const char* and const char* const char const* and char const* const

I'd like to second this idea, whether by color, commas, dashes or spaces. However, I'd like to see also included an ability to select grouping size, per variable displayed, eg,right-click to select byte, word, etc. Additionally, this could enable peripheral feature dependent group sizes. (Borland did those type things in a $150 compiler.) Probably a lot of work....? But very productive.

Thanks in advance
