<H2>*watch</H2>
<HR>
Enable (disable) annotated tile plane display
<HR>

<H3>Usage:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      <B>*watch</B> [<I>plane</I>] [<B>demo</B>] [<B>types</B>] <BR><BR>
      <BLOCKQUOTE>
         where <I>plane</I> is a valid plane name in the current
	 technology.
      </BLOCKQUOTE>
   </BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>Summary:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      The <B>*watch</B> command generates an annotated layout display
      which shows the structure of the tile plane in the corner-stitched
      database representation. <P>

      The <B>demo</B> option produces arrows at the stitch corners
      illustrating which tiles are directly referenced by pointers
      in the database tile structure. <P>

      The <B>types</B> option shows the name of the tile type for
      each tile, instead of the default display, which is the memory
      address (in hexidecimal) of the tile, in large print, and the
      memory address of the four stitched tiles, in small print. <P>

      <B>*watch</B> without arguments clears the display of annotations
      and returns to the normal layout view.  Note that <B>*watch</B>
      only allows one plane at a time to be annotated.  Also note that
      some commands such as <B>edit</B> will cause the annotation not
      to be synchronized with the current display or current edit cell,
      and may require the <B>*watch</B> to be executed again to display
      the correct tiles.
   </BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      <B>*watch</B> is implemented as a built-in "wizard" command in <B>magic</B>.
