The Memory Dump Pane

The Memory Dump pane allows you to view, edit, load, save or search regions of the running CPC emulator memory.



Each line represents 16 bytes of memory. The first four digits are the start address for the line, the second section contains 16 hexadecimal numbers showing the value of the 16 bytes from the given start address, and the third section is an ASCII representation of the same 16 bytes. Editing of hex bytes or ASCII data can be toggled by clicking on the appropriate section or pressing CTRL+TAB.

Memory Breakpoints are displayed with a green background for Read, red background for Write or a yellow background if the region contains both a read and a write breakpoint.

Any region of the CPC memory can be selected for viewing or editing. See Memory Selection for more information.
