  • monitor search command

    On my enhanced //e, there's a a monitor search command that
    looks for one or two bytes in an address range. For example, to
    find the next pair of spaces in the 2K from at $800 to $FFF, I'd
    enter:

    *2020<800.FFFs

    When I do this on the IIgs (rom01) or an emulator (rom03), the s
    command does a single step instead. The new CHRTBL makes it look
    like the command was renamed to "P", but that doesn't seem to
    work either. I checked the FAQ and google without benefit.

    Can anyone tell me the new syntax? Or where it's documented?

    BTW, I notice the syntax for ASCII entry is new, too.

    looking for 2020 would be like this:

    \2020\<800.fffp

    find 2 spaces
    \" "\<1000.ffffp

    find hello
    \"hello"\<1000.ffffp

    find olleh
    \'hello'\<1000.ffffp
