### 11.5 The Memory Window

The memory window allows you to display the contents of memory by specifying either an address, or a variable name.

To display memory contents, enter the address using the C hexadecimal notation: 0xabcd, or the name of a variable, e.g foo, in the Location text entry. In the latter case, its address is computed automatically. Then either press Enter or click on the View button. This will display the memory with the corresponding addresses in the bottom text area.

You can also specify the unit size (Byte, Halfword or Word), the format (Hexadecimal, Decimal, Octal or ASCII), and you can display the corresponding ASCII value at the same time.

The up and down arrows as well as the <Page up> and <Page down> keys in the memory text area allows you to walk through the memory in order of ascending/descending addresses respectively.

Finally, you can modify a memory area by simply clicking on the location you want to modify, and by entering the new values. Modified values will appear in a different color (red by default) and will only be taken into account (i.e written to the target) when you click on the Submit changes button. Clicking on the Undo changes or going up/down in the memory will undo your editing.

Clicking on Close will close the memory window, canceling your last pending changes, if any.
