Console Commands 3-17
space: is the optional device name (or address space) of the device to ac-
cess (see Table 3-3), and address specifies the offset within a device to
which data is deposited. Valid symbolic address forms (see Appendix A)
include:
• fpr-name, a symbol representing a floating-point register (DEC 7000
only).
• gpr-name, a symbol representing a general purpose register.
• ipr-name, a symbol representing the internal processor register.
• PC, the program counter. The address space is set to GPR.
• PSL, the processor status longword (VAX 7000 only).
• pt-name, a symbol representing a PAL temp register (DEC 7000 only).
• +, the location immediately following the last location referenced in an
examine or deposit command. For physical and virtual memory, the
referenced location is the last location plus the size of the reference (1
for byte, 2 for word, 4 for longword). For other address spaces, the ad-
dress is the last referenced address plus one.
• −, the location immediately preceding the last location referenced in an
examine or deposit command. For physical and virtual memory, the
referenced location is the last location minus the size of the reference
(1 for byte, 2 for word, 4 for longword). For other address spaces, the
address is the last referenced address minus one.
• *, the last location referenced in an examine or deposit command.
• @, the location addressed by the last location referenced in an exam-
ine or deposit command.
NOTE: Since the console program actually resides in low memory when
running, depositing to memory should be done with care.
