(Please, No Flames on this one)

Ok, here is something that breaks all of the rules...
Be warned!

(this is for all those people that need a poke and peek function
in C that used to use them in Basic)


This can be modified to just peek a value, but currently it pokes
and reads back from the memory location to insure success.

Command:

BASIC: poke address,byte

C:     pokepeek(address,byte); 

*/

void pokepeek(d,c)

unsigned char *d;	/* pointer to destination */
unsigned char c;	/* byte value to poke     */

{
	*d=c; /* poke at location d */
	printf("Hex Location $%x = %d\n",d,*d); /* peek at location */

}
