Is there an immediate window where I can print the value of variables?

Lazarus 1.6.0 and Freepascal 3.0.0 on Windows 7/8.

When debugging I noticed there are several windows, such as a watch
window, and a local variable window. However neither of these windows
can show me the value of stringlist.Count. Apps like MS Access have an
immediate window to print the value of a property or variable. Does
Lazarus have the same thing? If so how do I use it?

Thanks.

Hello,
Move mouse cursor to your StringList variable, and a hint window will
show all its details, like FCountOpen View/Debug windows/Watches, and
add StringList.FCount in order to show its value permanently

Stringlist.count is IIRC something like Stringlist.flist.fcount
