Replaces the contents of the specified locations in virtual memory
   and displays the new contents.

   The DEPOSIT command, together with the EXAMINE command, aids
   in debugging programs interactively. The DCL command DEPOSIT is
   similar to the DEPOSIT command of the VMS Symbolic Debugger.

   Requires user-mode read (R) and write (W) access to the virtual
   memory location whose contents you wish to change.

Examples

location
   Specifies the starting virtual address or range of virtual
   addresses (where the second address is larger than the first)
   whose contents are to be changed. A location can be any valid
   integer expression containing an integer value, a symbol
   name, a lexical function, or a combination of these entities.
   Radix qualifiers determine the radix in which the address is
   interpreted; hexadecimal is the initial default radix. Symbol
   names are always interpreted in the radix in which they were
   defined. The radix operators %X, %D, or %O can precede the
   location. A hexadecimal value must begin with a number (or be
   preceded by %X).

   The specified location must be within the virtual address space of
   the image currently running in the process.

   The DEPOSIT and EXAMINE commands maintain a pointer to a current
   memory location. The DEPOSIT command sets this pointer to the byte
   following the last byte modified; you can refer to this pointer by
   using a period (.)  in subsequent EXAMINE and DEPOSIT commands. If
   the DEPOSIT command cannot deposit the specified data, the pointer
   does not change. The EXAMINE command does not change the value of
   the pointer.

data[,...]
   Specifies the data to be deposited into the specified locations.
   By default, the data is assumed to be in hexadecimal format; it is
   then converted to binary format and is written into the specified
   location.

   If you specify more than one item, separate the items with
   commas (,).  The DEPOSIT command writes the data in consecutive
   locations, beginning with the address specified.

   When non-ASCII data is deposited, you can specify each item of
   data using any valid integer expression.

   When ASCII data is deposited, only one item of data is allowed.
   All characters to the right of the equal sign are considered
   to be part of a single string. The characters are converted to
   uppercase, and all spaces are compressed.

Additional information available:

/ASCII/BYTE/DECIMAL/HEXADECIMAL/LONGWORD
/OCTAL/WORD

   Indicates that the specified data is ASCII.

   Only one data item is allowed; all characters to the right of
   the equal sign (=)  are considered to be part of a single string.
   Unless they are enclosed within quotation marks (" "),  characters
   are converted to uppercase and multiple spaces are compressed to a
   single space before the data is written in memory.

   The DEPOSIT command converts the data to its binary equivalent
   before placing it in virtual memory. When you specify /ASCII,
   or when ASCII mode is the default, the location you specify is
   assumed to be hexadecimal.

   Requests that data be deposited 1 byte at a time.

   Indicates that the data is decimal. The DEPOSIT command converts
   the data to its binary equivalent before placing it in virtual
   memory.

   Indicates that the data is hexadecimal. The DEPOSIT command
   converts the data to its binary equivalent before placing it in
   virtual memory.

   Requests that data be deposited a longword at a time.

   Indicates that the data is octal. The DEPOSIT command converts the
   data to its binary equivalent before placing it in virtual memory.

   Requests that the data be deposited one word at a time.

   1.  $ RUN MYPROG
          .
          .
          .

<Ctrl/Y>

       $ EXAMINE 2780
       00002780:  1C50B344
       $ DEPOSIT .=0
       00002780:  00000000
       $ CONTINUE

     The RUN command executes the image MYPROG.EXE; subsequently,
     Ctrl/Y interrupts the program. Assuming that the initial
     defaults of the /HEXADECIMAL and /LONGWORD qualifiers are
     in effect, the DEPOSIT command places a longword of zeros in
     virtual memory location 2780.

     Because the EXAMINE command sets up a pointer to the current
     memory location, which in this case is virtual address 2780,
     you can refer to this location with a period (.)  in the DEPOSIT
     command.

     The CONTINUE command resumes execution of the image.

   2.  $ DEPOSIT/ASCII   2C00=FILE: NAME: TYPE:
       00002C00:  FILE: NAME: TYPE:...

     In this example, the DEPOSIT command deposits character data
     at hexadecimal location 2C00 and displays the contents of
     the location after modifying it. Because the current default
     length is a longword, the response from the DEPOSIT command
     displays full longwords. The ellipsis ( . . . ) indicates that
     the remainder of the last longword of data contains information
     that was not modified by the DEPOSIT command.

   3.  $ EXAMINE 9C0        !  Look at Hex location 9C0
       000009C0:  8C037DB3
       $ DEPOSIT .=0        !  Deposit longword of 0
       000009C0:  00000000
       $ DEPOSIT/BYTE .=1   !  Put 1 byte at next location
       000009C4:  01
       $ DEPOSIT .+2=55     !  Deposit 55 next
       000009C7:  55
       $ DEPOSIT/LONG .=0C,0D,0E !  Deposit longwords
       000009C8:  0000000C 0000000D 0000000E

     The sequence of DEPOSIT commands in the above example
     illustrates how the DEPOSIT command changes the current
     position pointer. Note that after you specify the /BYTE
     qualifier, all data is deposited and displayed in bytes, until
     the /LONGWORD qualifier restores the system default.

   4.  $ BASE=%X200          !  Define a base address
       $ LIST=BASE+%X40      !  Define offset from base
       $ DEPOSIT/DECIMAL LIST=1,22,333,4444
       00000240:  00000001 00000022 00000333 00004444
       $ EXAMINE/HEX LIST:LIST+0C !  Display results in hex
       00000240:  00000001 00000016 0000014D 0000115C

     The assignment statements define a base address in hexadecimal
     and a label at a hexadecimal offset from the base address.
     The DEPOSIT command reads the list of values and deposits each
     value into a longword, beginning at the specified location. The
     EXAMINE command requests a hexadecimal display of these values.
