   I also would like to see sequences displayed as above.

   These are the additional complaints I have:

   1: Why don't error messages for sequences tell WHICH sequence
      the error message is reporting the error about?

   2: Why are the sequences truncated with 3 dots when working with
      long sequences. How can you detect the error if the complete
      sequence is not printed out.

   3: I want an option to be able to see HEX displayed instead of
      DECIMAL, Most programmers think in HEX.

   4: Why is there no flag ( or break character ) that can be inserted
      into the program code to force a dump of the ex.err file at
      that point; because trace doesn't work under all circumstances.
