13Description
14-----------
15
16The md command is used to dump the contents of memory. It uses a standard
17format that includes the address, hex data and ASCII display. It supports
18various data sizes and uses the endianness of the target.
19
20The specified data_size and length become the defaults for future memory
21commands commands.
22
23address
24 start address to display
25
26data_size
27 size of each value to display (defaults to .l):

35 .q quadword (64 bits)
36 ========= ===================
37
38length
39 number of values to dump. Defaults to 40 (0d64). Note that this is not
40 the same as the number of bytes, unless .b is used.

88in the same format as before.
