mvconfig

Format: mvconfig [%name] key[=value] [key[=value]] [...]

Configures a memory view window. (This is mv-config, not mvc-config.) See Chapter 18, "Memory view window".The %name option specifies the memory view window to configure. If the name is omitted, the command configures the memory view window that was last created or configured. You may also configure the defaults for the next memory view window to be created by using %default as the name. The mvconfig command is mainly useful for scripts and most of the functions it provides are accessible directly from the memory view window.

The following key-value pairs are valid (note that the keys and values are case insensitive):
Key Meaning
bpr=n
Changes the number of bytes per row displayed. Valid values for n are +, -, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128. The plus sign (+) increases the bytes per row to the next higher setting. The minus sign (-) decreases the bytes per row to the next lower setting. A number sets the bytes per row to that number.
name=newname
Renames the window with the given new name.
endian=e
Sets the endianness mode. Valid values for e include big and lit or little.
type=typestr
Displays memory as the type specified by the type strings. This is equivalent to setting the type pulldown to the specified position. See the table below of valid values for typestr.
ascii=state
Sets the state of the ASCII column. Valid values for state are on (show the ASCII column), off (hide the ASCII column), and toggle (switch the current state of the ASCII column to the opposite setting).
frozen=state
Sets the frozen state of the window. Valid values for state are on (freeze the window), off (unfreeze the window), and toggle (switch the current freeze state of the window to the opposite setting).
quit
Closes the memory view window.

Valid values for type=typestr include:
