filename This is the location (path) and name of the file you want to reference
(e.g., \progdir\program.obj).

5.2 FILE OPERATIONS
iECM-86 uses files in the host system to load and save object code, to enter predefined strings of
commands, to keep a log of commands that are entered by the user, and to keep a record of an
entire debug session that includes both the characters entered by the user and the responses
generated by iECM-86 on the host screen. The commands that operate with files are described in
the following sections.
5.2.1 Loading and Saving Object Code
iECM-86 accepts object files that are generated by Intel’s development tools. iECM-86 will not
accept files that contain unresolved externals or files that contain re-locatable records. These files
must be passed through LINK86 and/or LOC86 to resolve the externals and/or absolutely locate
the re-locatable segments. iECM-86 will also not accept HEX format files. The iECM-86
commands that operate on object files are the following:
LOAD
filename
SAVE
addr
TO
addr
IN
filename
The metasymbol filename means that a valid MS-DOS file name must be entered in that position
of the command string.
LOAD filename This command loads the content records of the object
file filename into the target memory.
SAVE addr TO addr IN filename This command saves a region of memory as an object
file that can be reloaded into the target memory at
some later time.
