<h2>
Functional Description</h2>
<dl>
<dd> The fill command fills an area of memory with a specified hexadecimal pattern
or repeating string. The pattern can be a single byte or multiple bytes. For
the fill command to work correctly, to must be greater than from. If the -s
option is specified, the next parameter is interpreted as an ASCII string.
Multiple-word strings may be specified by enclosing them in quotes.</dd>
<br>
&nbsp;
<p>For example, to clear an area of memory from 0xa0020000 to 0xa0021000, enter:
<pre>PMON> fill a0020000 a0021000 0
</pre>
To fill an area of memory from 0xa0020000 to 0xa00210000 with the string of
values 0x41, 0x42, 0x43, 0x44, and 0x45, enter:
<pre>PMON> fill a0020000 a00210000 41 42 43 44 45&nbsp;
</pre>
To fill an area of memory from 0xa0020000 to 0xa00210000 with the ASCII string
"hello world," enter:
<pre>PMON> fill a0020000 a0021000 -s "hello world"&nbsp;
</pre>
