There is a program called PEPORES (peek-poke resident, I think) which
would probably fit your requirements. What's more I also think its
public domain. I remember having a copy of it once but did not reload it
when my hard disk got corrupted last year - I should still have a copy
somewhere and if not could probably chase it up if anyone is interested.
