Not       to mention the overwhelming x86 & x64 instruction sets and operating       environments.              It would be great if there's a full 32/64 bit version of DEBUG, rather than       a 32/64 bit DEBUG but with 16-bit functionalities.              Or, is there a 32/64 bit console based debugger (for Windows) with assembler       and binary file & memory manipulation already? Just like what DEBUG can do?       So far, I only found the GUI ones.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
