# Code Annotation Debugger Commands

comadd

  adds a comment to the disassembled code at given address

comdelete

  removes a comment from the given address

comsave

  save the current comments to file

comlist

  list comments stored in the comment file for the system

commit

  combined `comadd` and `comsave` command

## comadd

comadd <address>,<comment>

Sets the specified comment for the specified address in the disassembled code for the visible CPU. This command may be abbreviated to `//`.

Examples:

`comadd 0,hello world.`

  Adds the comment “hello world.” to the code at address 0.

`// 10,undocumented opcode!`

  Adds the comment “undocumented opcode!” to the code at address 10.

## comdelete

comdelete

Deletes the comment at the specified address for the visible CPU.

Examples:

`comdelete 10`

  Deletes the comment at code address 10 for the visible CPU.

## comsave

comsave

Saves the current comments to the XML comment file for the emulated system. This file will be loaded by the debugger the next time the system is run with debugging enabled. The directory for saving these files is set using the comment_directory option.

Examples:

`comsave`

  Saves the current comments to the comment file for the system.

## comlist

comlist

Reads the comments stored in the XML comment file for the emulated system and prints them to the debugger console. This command does not affect the comments for the current session, it reads the file directly. The directory for these files is set using the comment_directory option.

Examples:

comlist

  Shows comments stored in the comment file for the system.

## commit

commit <address>,<comment>

Sets the specified comment for the specified address in the disassembled code for the visible CPU, and saves comments to the file for the current emulated system (equivalent to comadd followed by comsave). This command may be abbreviated to `/*`.

Examples:

`commit 0,hello world.`

  Adds the comment “hello world.” to the code at address 0 for the visible CPU and saves comments.

`/* 10,undocumented opcode!`

  Adds the comment “undocumented opcode!” to the code at address 10 for the visible CPU and saves comments.
