Like when it encounters an interrupt, there is a text referencing what it is doing? For example: when the debugger encounters int 21h service 58h
it references me that it is used for memory allocation strategy. Just for memorizing it.
Thanks

BTW, if say ds:[some address] is pointing to an image, when you dump it out, it is meaningless. How can you display that byte array pointed by ds:[some address] as raw images? I know that is difficult because each program decipher the byte array differently. But how you guys do it?
Thanks

for raw binary image data, you can always set the appropriate graphics mode and then BLOAD it into the video segment (with something like qbasic/gwbasic).
