- The SWI module provides *commands relating to SWIs.
- The commands are:
-
- *SWIName

- Syntax: *SWIName <SWI number>
-
- Returns the name of the SWI given.
- eg.
- *SWIName &400C7
-

- Syntax: *SWINumber <SWI name>

- The SWI name/number can be either the string version enclosed in quotes,
- or the hexnumber preceded with &, or the decimal number.

- You can also specify upto 8 register's values. A pointer to a string can
- be included by putting the string in quotes. BEWARE - if you don't close
- all the quotes, your computer will die horribly (probably). I haven't
- put in any checking for this because I couldn't be bothered.
