+NAME mem -- core memory
+.sp
+.ti 0
+DESCRIPTION mem___
+is a special file that is an image of the core memory
+of the computer.
+It may be used, for example, to examine,
+and even to patch the system using the debugger.
+
+Mem___ is a byte-oriented file; its bytes are numbered
+0 to 65,535.
+
+If a non-existent memory location is
+referenced, the user
+suffers the resultant bus error.
+
+Memory referenced through
+the file is treated with movb____ instructions.
+Certain device registers do not implement
+DATOB cycles to odd addresses.
+Other registers react strangely to this
+addressing.
