The current way the console displays the state of the registers is:

00000001 00000004 030030F0 00000001
00000000 030030E4 030030E4 030030F0
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
00000040 03007E24 080004AB 080008B0

Would it possible to change that slightly to:

R00=00000001 R01=00000004 R02=030030F0 R03=00000001
R04=00000000 R05=030030E4 R06=030030E4 R07=030030F0
R08=00000000 R09=00000000 R10=00000000 R11=00000000
R12=00000040 R13=03007E24 R14=080004AB R15=080008B0

As a related suggestion/alternative, would it be possible to add a r/r command to easily read the value from a particular register as a counterpart to w/r?

The opposite of w/r is p

Oh, you have to do (e.g.) p r3. I didn't even think to try that because the description made it sound like it was just for displaying literal values.

I only suggested r/r because the other w/? commands all have r/? counterparts.

That's reasonable, but I'm not sure it's that useful all told.
