- 1- Syntax 2- Notes 3- Examples of Use
-
- POKE.COM is a transient replacement for the RCP-based command of the same
- name, for Z33/Z34/NZCOM/Z3PLUS systems where the RCP space has been omitted to
- maximize TPA. In addition to emulating its model's syntax, POKE.COM observes
- the host system's quiet flag for all displays other than the help screen and
- error messages, unless the local quiet byte at ENTRY+2 (102h under DDT for
- Type 3, 202h under DDT for Type 4) is patched to a non-zero value, in which
- case it is "quiet" regardless of the system's edicts. Only Type 3 (@9800h)
- and Type 4 versions are in the distribution LBR - a Type 3 at 100h doesn't
- seem terribly useful, but it would work as expected.

- Original (9/11/88) by Bruce Morgen.

- Syntax POKE <addr> nn[ nn nn nn....]
-
- Where "addr" is the target address and
- "nn" is any hex byte or word value. Hex
- numbers of three or more digits are poked
- as words in LSB-first (Intel) order.
-
-
- (or) POKE <addr> "any ASCII characters<cr>
-
- The ascii string starts after the '"' and
- will be shifted to upper case.

- POKE.COM Notes
-
- a. Vs 1.2 updates (9/21/91, Bruce Morgen):
- - Fixed bug that wouldn't allow poking an ASCII string that started with
- a colon (after the opening quote), corrected help screen.
-
- b. Vs 1.1 updates (7/12/91, Bruce Morgen):
- - Now allows word-wide hex pokes, useful for late-model "pointer" alias
- parameters.
