ChipPeek 2.1 documentation DISTRIBUTION This software is FreeWare ! PURPOSE You can see your chip ram contents as a graphics screen, like any other mempeek. I coded my own, because there were not AGA mempeek when I bought my AMIGA 1200. (93') But now it is 96'. See the history from 2.0 below for improvements. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Any AMIGA with min. Kickstart 2.0 and the disk based commodities.library. Only 15 Khz PAL supported. It works fine on AGA machines too. It's not a bad thing to own some chip ram (.5/1/1.5/2Mb)... INSTALLATION Simply start from WB or CLI. Tooltypes are handled by WB only, no CLI arguments. USAGE Start peeking - CX_POPKEY (def. ) or both mousebuttons Quit peeking - CX_POPKEY (def. ) or both mousebuttons Vertical scroll - move your mouse up/down Quick vert. scr. - move your mouse up/down + right mousebutton Horizontal scroll - press AND move your mouse right/left. I coded this two direction move 'cause practical reason: I didn't like mempeek at that I couldn't set the right memposition fast. But with this method you can go fast through the mem (there are many dirty mouses...), and when you want to go only to left or right press shift.) Quick hor. scr. - the above + right mousebutton Switch resolution - press left mousebutton (lores/hires/superhires) Set Modulo - press AND move your mouse left/right Set mark - press or or Jump to mark - press <1> or <2> or <3> Set to zero - press to zero picaddress and modulo - press to zero picaddress only - press to zero modulo only Remove - press when you are peeking What numbers can you see: xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxx address the leftmost highlighted word in bits modulo See tooltypes below from the 2.0 features. HISTORY 1.0 - First public release. 1.9 - Second public release. It is prerelease of 2.0 - totally reworked - more system friendly - now it is commodity, all input handled by commodities.library - hot key - quick searches - setmarks 2.0 - Third public release. - tooltypes (WB) - CX_POPKEY (def.: control lalt p) - CX_POPUP (YES or NO) - PIC1 (pic address in hex, ie.: 1fe00) - MOD1 (modulo in hex, ie.: 28) - RES1=0 (lores) 1 (hires) 2 (shires) - PIC2,MOD2,RES2, PIC3,MOD3,RES3 like above - zero key (z) for pic address, modulo or both - 16 bit zoom has been redone - peek start with both mousebuttons 2.1 - 4th public release. Small update. - nice MWB and 4 color icons by Rendall - stack is set to 2048, cos it's enough - BMB tooltype added -> peek start with both buttons is optional! - most of the copper routines now is handled by the OS - it should work correctly with especially multisync monitors (sometimes the sync went away while peeking) - you can enable or disable the peek start via comm. Exchange - def. hotkey changed to FUTURE x.x will have: - file peek !!! Suggestion by EFT. - dynamic 16 bit zoom refresh - perhaps input will be handled by intuition, or a totally systemless method for lowmem people - fastram peek - if anybody want free move (to up/down/right/left) at the same time, it will be switchable TESTED ON Amiga 1200 with: - 4 Mb fast ram, made by DERKO - 405 Mb Conner CFS425A winchester, 2.5"->3.5" adapter made by DERKO - 2x speed Sony CDU-55E CD-ROM THANKS TO Psybu for his suggestions. Rendall for his nice fonts. EFT for his suggestions. DERKO for his great hardwares. Nemtom for his fonts. SPECIAL THANKS TO Ferenc Riczak for repairing my power supply so fast.
