Using the x16emu debugger

[fredrik]

How do I view the contents of memory above $ffff ? If I try "M 10000" it seems I just get to look at the contents at $0000.

Also, am I supposed to see mapped memory at $a000-$bfff in the debugger? The contents I see are not what I would expect, and nothing changes if I change the value in address 0. Is the emulator even supposed to change the banking if I change the contents of address 0 in the debugger?

Is there up to date documentation for x16emu somewhere? I'm looking at https://github.com/rsbohn/x16-emulator/ ... /README.md , but that doesn't seem to be up to date.

Wow. That's an old version of the emulator.

You will want to start by grabbing the emulator from the official repository at https://github.com/X16Community/x16-emulator

The readme on this repo also has the current operating instructions, which do include reading from banks other than 0... which you do by entering 6 digit address with the D command. The right 4 digits are the base address, and the left 2 digits are the bank index.

Thanks!

I have the latest release (Winnipeg).

These instructions are better than the ones I found, but still not complete. I figured out I can change the value of an address with "f address value", but this isn't in the readme you iinked to.

Anyway, thanks to you I now realized the bank part only changes what can be seen at $a000-$bfff, so something like "m 10000" shows the same as "m 0".

I'm getting somewhere.
