8.86 LOADCORE (Load a core image from a file)
8.86.1 Function
The LOADCORE command allows you to load a binary data file into real storage. This function is used
mainly for emulator debugging purposes. A certain core snapshot that was saved can be restored at any
later time to reproduce some tests with identical real storage values. The file filename is presumed to be
a pure binary image file previously created via the SAVECORE command. Please note that you must
stop all CPUs (see STOP / STOPALL commands) before loading a core image from a file.

8.86.3 Parameter
filename
This argument specifies the file name (and optionally the path) of the file from
which the core image will be loaded.
address
This specifies the start address of the real storage to where the saved file has to be
loaded to. A value of zero, the default, means the beginning of real storage.
