DWORD variables. When this command is invoked, iECM-86 starts
by displaying the current default base and then a series of lines
showing the contents of the selected memory region. The next line
starts with a hexadecimal display of the address of the next DWORD
variable to be displayed followed by the display of up to 16 bytes of
memory as DWORD variables in the default base. A new line starts
whenever 16 bytes of memory have been displayed on the line. The
command terminates when all of the DWORD variables in the
selected range have been displayed. During lengthy displays, you can
stop the output to the console by pressing the space bar. You can
resume the display by pressing the space bar a second time. You
terminate the command by entering a carriage return.
DWORD dword_address TO dword_address = dword_value
This form is used to initialize a region of memory to the given
dword_value. Note that this command takes a little over a
millisecond (at 9600 baud) for each DWORD loaded. You can
terminate this command by entering a carriage return, but
terminating the command leaves only part of the memory region
initialized.
5.4.5 STACK Commands
There are two basic forms for the STACK command:
STACK
stack_address
STACK
stack_address
TO
stack_address
Both of these commands can be used whether or not the user’s program is running.
STACK stack_address
This command is useful for accessing a 16-bit variable that is known
to be a fixed offset in the system stack. When this command is
invoked, iECM-86 executes a WORD word_address command in
which the word_address is formed by adding stack_address to the
current value of the system stack pointer.
STACK stack_address TO stack_address
This command is useful for accessing a sequence of 16-bit variables
that are known to start at a fixed offset in the system stack. When this
command is invoked, iECM-86 executes a WORD word_address TO
word_address command in which both word_address fields are
formed by adding the corresponding stack_address to the current
value of the system stack pointer. During lengthy displays, you can
stop the output to the console by pressing the space bar. You can
