Chapter 13/ The DEBUG Utility
• When you load a file with an .exe extension, DEBUG relocates
the file to the load address specified in the header of the .exe
file and ignores any address you may have specified. The
header is stripped from the .exe file before it is loaded. Thus
the size of an .exe file on disk differs from its size in memory.
If the file indicated by the Name command, or specified when
DEBUG is started, is a .hex file, then entering the L command
without parameters causes DEBUG to load the file at the
address specified in the .hex file. If the L command includes the
address option, DEBUG adds the specified address to the address
found in the .hex file to determine the start address for loading
the file.
