Just want to  extend TESTAUTH it does let me display a data space but only
if it’s created in the debugged address space and it’s private only
accessible by the debugged address space

How does TESTAUTH verify that this alet ( the one created in my address
space only accessible by the debugged address space is kosher ) I thought
it was simple look up from STCBALOV but it’s more complex

I am going to read 5-46 introduction to access registers in the pops book
and your email again and see if I can do what I want

Thanks  for your help
