See the Data Format section for more information on how to specify the search string. find or t : Finds all occurrences of data in readable regions of the target's memory.Memwatch's interactive interface implements the following commands for searching a process's memory for variables: Results from other searches may also be used by specifying the search name explicitly, as in See the Data Format section for information on how to specify the data string. For example, specifying s0 refers to the first result address in the current search s1 refers to the second result, etc. address may be preceded by s to read the address from the current search result set, or by t to read the address from the results of the previous invocation of the find command. write : Writes data to address in the target process's memory.It starts with '+' and includes any of the characters 'a' (text), 'f' (float), 'd' (double), and 'r' (reverse-endian) the default is '+a'. format is a short string specifying which additional interpretations of the data should be printed. If a filename is given, writes the data to the given file instead of printing to the terminal. address and size are specified in hexadecimal. read : Reads a block of size bytes from address in the target process's memory.If no prefix is given, only determines which regions are readable. dump : If a prefix is given, dumps all readable memory in the target process to files named.list: Lists memory regions allocated in the target process's address space.To remove all access to a memory region, use - for the access mode. The access mode is a string consisting of the r, w, or x characters, or some combination thereof.

access : Changes the virtual memory protection mode on the region containing address.Memwatch's interactive interface implements the following commands for reading, writing, and otherwise manipulating virtual memory: Not all commands may be repeated if the command doesn't support watching, it will execute only once. watch or ! : Repeat the given command every second until Ctrl+C is pressed.With arguments, sets the internal variable field_name to value. This includes variables from command-line options, like use_color and pause_target. state : With no arguments, displays simple variables from memwatch's internal state.You can use this to test complex data strings before writing them to be sure the correct data will be written. data : Parses the data string and displays the raw values returned from the parser.If no argument is given, attaches to a process with the same name as the currently-attached process. attach : Attaches to a new process by PID or by name.There are a few unintuitive abbreviations, which are noted below. read, rd, and r are all the same command). Most commands can be abbreviated intuitively (e.g. This prompt shows the pid of the attached process, the process name, the number of open searches, and the number of frozen memory regions. Upon running memwatch, you'll see a debugger-like prompt like memwatch:48536/VirtualBoxVM 0s/0f #. See the man page ( man memwatch after building and installing) for more options. If multiple processes match the name, it will ask you which one to operate on. If you give a name, memwatch will search the list of running processes to find one that matches this name (case-insensitive). It should build and run on all recent OS X versions. If it doesn't work on your system, let me know. I often use memwatch to cheat in games, but have also used it in debugging to complement the features of a generic debugger such as gdb. This functionality is similar to that provided by scanmem(1). After finding this variable, memwatch can monitor it, change its value, "freeze" its value, and more. This is done by repeatedly searching the process' address space for values that follow the rules given by the user, narrowing down the result set until it includes only the desired variable. Memwatch provides an interactive interface to find and modify variables in the memory of a running process.
