(gdb) p PLOTSLICES

(gdb) help parray
parray ARRAYNAME TYPE [PRINTOPTION]
Prints an entire dynamic FreeBASIC array, cast to
the specified TYPE (you may use types like 'int').
There are 4 formatting options. Optionally specify 0
(default), 1, 2 or 3 as PRINTOPTION. Try 2 or 3
(warning: slow) when dealing with a UDT array, use
3 to pretty print structures. 0 or 1 take advantage
of builtin array printing and repeat squashing,
necessary for large integer arrays.
Eg.
DIM array(300, 3) as integer
gdb> parray ARRAY int 1
