what would be the best way to return the contents of a memory area as an hex string?, the fact that pb works always with unsigneds messes me a bit

peekHEX(address,len)

Try these procedures:

Code: Select all

Procedure.s PeekHEXByte(*Address)
  ProcedureReturn RSet(Hex(PeekB(*Address)), 2, "0")
EndProcedure

Procedure PeekHEXWord(*Address)
  ProcedureReturn RSet(Hex(PeekW(*Address)), 4, "0")
EndProcedure

Procedure PeekHEXLong(*Address)
  ProcedureReturn RSet(Hex(PeekL(*Address)), 8, "0")
EndProcedure

Procedure.s PeekHEX(*Address, len)
  Out.s = ""
  For a = 0 To len-1
    Out + PeekHEXByte(*Address+a)
  Next
  ProcedureReturn Out
EndProcedure

It does not work, at least is not what you would see in an hex editor, you have to convert to unsigned, this worked

Code: Select all

procedure.s peekHEX(mem,bytes)
	st$=""
	for x=0 to bytes-1
		vs.b=peekb(mem+x)
		vu.w = vs & $FF
		h$=hex(vu)
		if len(h$)=1 : h$="0" + h$ : endif
		st$=st$ + h$
	next
	procedurereturn st$
endprocedure
