Description

The ram search (and ram watch too) would be complete if it has a poke feature by double clicking an address value in the ram search results to make a change to it on the fly.

A feature like this would be useful when searching the games ASM or static addresses and would speed things up wile hacking games. all trainer programs Ive used and cheat engine have this feature.

Research direction

Start by locating the RAM search and RAM watch result views and how they handle displayed address values. Trace the existing memory-read path before deciding where editing would belong. Done means a double-click on an address value allows an updated value to be applied while the search or watch view is running.
