It sounds like you want to see the real time changes to the contents of a file as you step through your program in a debugger. In general the debugger is not great at displaying the contents of a file. The debugger is designed to display the state of the running program and not the state of external items such as the file system.
However you can easily watch the contents of the file through an external editor such as gVim or likely the actual IDE you’re using. Most editors will detect the contents of the file changing on disk and prompt you to reload when it changes.
