What Do the 3 Dots in the Tools Site Names Replace?

When I click the NoScript icon and then click the Tools icon that's inside, the list shows a site name preceded by three dots. Sometimes the full site name is also displayed, but sometimes it isn't. For example:
...aomeitech.com
http://www.aomeitech.com
...cancer.org
http://www.cancer.org
How can I see what is being replaced by the three dots?

...aomeitech.com means "match amoeitech.com and all its subdomain, such as
www.amoeitech.com, static.amoeitech.com and so on".

Thank you for replying.
I have been using NoScript since version 10 came out and am just beginning to understand how to set it up.
Using the examples I provided, why is "
http://www.aomeitech.com" listed if that URL is already matched by the entry "...aomeitech.com"? Can you explain that to me or maybe send me a link to where I can find out more about this?
TIA

Because with the first one you ONLY allow !www!.aomeitech.com. with the latter you allow any subdomain under that domain. for instance
http://pics.aometech.com.
It jumps out when there are several subdomains want rules at the same time.
