7.4.16. find

The find command finds all occurrences in memory of a given integer value or character string.

Syntax

The syntax of the find command is either of the following:

find expression1 {,expression2 {,expression3}}

find string {,expression2 {,expression3}}

where:

expression1

gives the words in memory to search for

expression2

specifies the lower boundary for the search. If expression2 is absent, the base of the currently loaded image is used.

expression3

specifies the upper boundary for the search. If expression3 is absent, the top (R/W limit) of the currently loaded image is used.

string

specifies the string to search for.

Usage

If the first form is used, the search is for words in memory whose contents match the value of expression1.

If the second form is used, the search is for a sequence of bytes in memory (starting at any byte boundary) whose contents match those of string.

Low-level symbols are accepted by default.
