Finally got tired of hunting for this on my disk...

This adds a 'watch it' choice to the context menus in text editors. 
This will take the selection, make a BlockContext out of it, and give 
you a Morph that will display the value of that block every half 
second.

It can be used, for instance, from the Debugger to display an instance 
variable as your program runs.

Try, for instance, watching this:
World currentHand cursorPoint 

Only works in Morphic; results in an inspector being put up for the 
resultant block under MVC (you can evaluate 'self value' in that 
inspector if you want).
