Commodore PC - Dump

216 MS-DOS User's Reference
(D)ump
Using the Dump
command
Dump
Purpose:
Displays the contents of the specified range of memory.
Syntax:
D[range]
Comments:
If you specify a range of addresses with the D (dump) command,
the contents of the range are displayed. If you don't use parame
ters with the D command, 128 bytes are displayed at the first
address (DS:100) after the address displayed by the previous D
command.
The dump is displayed in two portions: a hexadecimal dump
(each byte is shown in hexadecimal value) and an ascii dump (the
bytes are shown in ascii characters). Nonprinting characters are
denoted by a period (.) in the ascii portion of the display. Each
display line shows 16 bytes, with a hyphen between the eighth
and ninth bytes. At times, displays are split in this chapter to
fit them on the page. Each displayed line begins on a 16-byte
boundary.
Examples:
If you type the command:
dcs:100110
debug displays the dump in the following format:
04BA:0100 42 45 52 54 41 ... 4E 44 TOM SAWYER
If you simply type the D command, the display is formatted as
described above. Each line of the display begins with an address,
incremented by 16 from the address on the previous line.
Each subsequent D (typed without parameters) displays the bytes
immediately following those last displayed.
