Logging a memory write?

Hiya..

I need to dump to the log anytime a byte is written to a specific RAM location.

From want I can tell, I can't seem to do this from the debugger as the only way to do it is to set a watchpoint along with a logerror action.. however, that also stops execution in the debugger each time, which is not what I want.

Is there a way to do this in the debugger or do I need to customize the source with a memory write handler in order to do this specific task?

Thank you!

wpset 0295,1,w,1,{logerror "ID: %02X",wpdata: g}
