I am using PowerModels package and it has rather long dictionaries as model data.

When the inner structure has a lot of rows, it displays either …=\>… for a dict. or just … for arrays.  
I don’t see any way to preview more rows. Is there any way to control this behavior? Either load more on demand or statically increase how much loads.

If I understand your issue correctly, you could print `n` many items with something like this:

```julia
function showmore(io::IO, x, n)
    for (i,k) in enumerate(x)
        i > n && break
        println(io, k)
    end
end

showmore(x, n=typemax(Int)) = showmore(stdout, x, n)
```
