I think the difference about assembled opcodes and a "live memory" view
are important to highlight, for debugging purposes the latter would  be
most useful, because it shows the real state of affairs and not just the
assembled instructions in memory.

So it would probably make sense to add a short program that overwrites
its own memory with instructions and then sets the memory accordingly.

Status in gnusim8085: Fix Committed

Bug description:
I've been using another 8085 simulator under Windows, and it includes a handy feature, it's a grid that shows memory address, io ports, and its values. I've included some screenshots. gnusim8085 includes a data inspector, but for using it you need to set variable names, and other couple of stuff.

I'll give it a try to develop somthing like that, but I'm not really good with GTK programming. I've just found this other project, but it seems to be dead, there is no code, or releases, but the screenshot includes something similar to what I mean. It also shows something related to this feature request http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=820508&group_id=86462&atid=579702
