Look at memory (up to 1 meg) on an IBM PC compatible with a monochrome or 
color graphics adaptor screen.

Includes the capability to jump to an address, and to find a string of
characters.

Press ESC to quit

Press '?' for help screen

Cursor location (in hexadecimal) and contents are shown at the top of the screen

Arrow keys move the cursor
Ctrl-Left/Right Arrow keys move the cursor 10 spaces left/right

Toggle Scroll Lock ON to scroll screen with Up & Down Arrow keys

Press Home to go to left side of screen

Press End to go to right side of screen

Press Ctrl-Home to go to the top of screen

Press Ctrl-PgUp to go to beginning of memory

Press Ctrl-PgDn to go to end of memory

Press Ctrl-F to find a string of up to 8 characters
(beginning from the beginning of memory)

(use the DOS capability of inputting any ASCII character by toggling Num Lock ON
 and then pressing the Alt key along with the decimal number representation
 of any ASCII character on the numeric key pad.  When you release the Alt key,
 the graphic representation will be seen after 'Find: ' at the top of the screen
 You can thus find a string of any type of character.)

Press Ctrl-L to repeat looking for that string from the current cursor location

Press Ctrl-J to jump to any memory location
(input the address in hexadecimal numbers)

If you would like me to make any changes (like eliminating any screen flicker
when you scroll the screen), you can contact me by modem on the SIGSIG BBS at
