Hi,
TeX has a rather verbose output when one uses \showbox. In many
cases, one would rather want to see a much more compact rendition.
Here is typical output:
> \box255=
\vbox(397.39815+3.04161)x401.18385

Now of course, one would rather want to read this as

This would make the reading of such output _much_ more readable, and
much easier to compare with the corresponding material in the
TeX/DVI/PDF files. So basically, one would fold one line into a
single character (when in hboxes). One could still walk through in
unfolding mode in order to get the details.
At the current point of time, by the way,
C-c `
is completely unusable for walking through \showbox: it shows only the
message, but not the box itself, never mind folding it.
