Using the 166Bug Debugger

The commands are shown using a modified Backus-Naur form syntax. The metasymbols used are:

boldface strings A boldface string is a literal such as a command or a

 

 

program name, and is to be typed just as it appears.

 

italic strings

An italic string is a "syntactic variable" and is to be

 

 

replaced by one of a class of items it represents.

4

A vertical bar separating two or more items indicates that

 

 

 

a choice is to be made; only one of the items separated by

 

 

this symbol should be selected.

 

[ ]

Square brackets enclose an item that is optional. The item

 

 

may appear zero or one time.

 

{ }

Braces enclose an optional symbol that may occur zero or

 

 

more times.

 

Syntactic Variables

 

 

The following syntactic variables are encountered in the command

 

descriptions which follow. In addition, other syntactic variables may be used

 

and are defined in the particular command description in which they occur.

 

DEL

Delimiter; either a comma or a space.

 

EXP

Expression (described in detail in a following section).

 

ADDR

Address (described in detail in a following section).

 

COUNT

Count; the syntax is the same as for EXP.

 

RANGE

A range of memory addresses which may be specified either

 

 

by ADDR DEL ADDR or by ADDR : COUNT.

 

TEXT

An ASCII string of up to 255 characters, delimited at each end

 

 

by the single quote mark (’).
