Debajit,

I am working on merging your patch. Do you have any test programs I can use for testing the functionality?

Hi Onkar,

Do you mean 8085 test programs?

I will send if I still have some. It has been a long time since I did 8085
coding :)

Thanks,
Debjit

Yes, I meant 8085 test programs. Any which you may have written when you worked on this patch.

Hi Onkar,

I am attaching few 8085 programs. Hope they work...

Cheers,
Debjit

Debajit,

Thanks for test programs. I have integrated the patch already. After testing it sufficiently I will commit the patch next week.

I have committed the changes. Anyone interested can try building from git master.

this looks pretty useful. I have recently created a somewhat larger program in 8085, and it occured to me that it would make sense to provide different interpretation views, so that memory addresses can be inspected using different "bit width" (e.g. 8,16,32,64). Often, people use several consecutive memory cells to represent values of a certain size.

At the moment, each byte will be shown separately. By using a combo box/dropdown menu for each address, it would be possible to allow users to switch the interpretation to a different bit width ("interpret as ..."). This would make it possible to directly show the corresponding decimal (or ASCII) value, too.
