Set event breakpoint. First parameter specifies type of event. See general description of event breakpoints above about meaning of event identifiers. Second parameter specify if the breakpoint will be fix (f) or dynamic (d). Third parameter specifies address. Remember that this is not an instruction address, it is address of the memory cell where specified event should occur.
Forth parameter is optional and it specifies the hit number. It is 1 by default.

If you specify one or more parameter the ds command prints out
value of registers specified by parameters. Parameter can be an
address or a symbolic name of the register. Note that the simulator
implements a register at all address in the address space which is not
true in real microcontroller where reading of an unimplemented
register gets undefined value. Value of the registers printed out in
hexadecimal, decimal, and ASCII form.
Note that different type of controllers can implement different registers:

Go, start execution. Parameters are optional. First parameter specifies start address of the execution. By default execution starts at address specified by actual value of the PC. This can be overridden by first parameter. If second parameter is specified it places a dynamic breakpoint at specified address which stops the execution. If stop address is not given the simulator stops if it reaches a breakpoint, or the CPU accepts an interrupt and stopit option is TRUE, or fatal error occurres or stop command is used. Note that first instruction is executed without effect of breakpoints. It means that if there is a breakpoint at start address then it will not be hit.

Searching for specified string in internal RAM area. String is interpreted from first non-space character until end of the command including spaces. wi command makes case insensitive search and Wi can be used to make case sensitive search. Result is a hexa dump of memory areas that match with specified string. Most of C-style escape sequences can be used in the string: \f, \n, \r, \t, \v, \a, \b, \0, and \0xxx where xxx is an octadecimal number of the code of the character.

Get actual value of option(s). Some options can be set by sopt to modify behavior of the simulator. Using gopt you can get actual value of these options. If you use this command without parameter you get list of all options known by the program. In this way you can figure out which options can be used.

First element of the list is name of the option (verbose, debug and stopit). This name can be used to identify the option in gopt and sopt command. Second element of the list is the value of the option. In this case type of both options is boolean, their value can be TRUE or FALSE. Third element is a short description of the option.
Set option value. Options described at previous command (gopt) can be set using this command. First parameter must be an option name and second the new value. Interpretation of the value depends on type of the option. Value for a boolean type of option interpreted as follows: if first character of the value is one of 1, t, T, y, Y then value will be TRUE otherwise it will be FALSE.

This command can be used to set up output values of external circuits connected to port pins. If a port bit is used as output to drive external circuits, do not set corresponding pin bit to zero because read back value of the port can be false. First parameter must be number of the port between 0 and 3.
