Writing to Memory and Page Alignment

Hi all,

Is it possible to force gdb to write data to a target in a page aligned ( boundary
) manner?

For example, I have flash memory which is located at 0x8000 and the page size
is 256bytes. Under the current setup, gdb can overlap the pages and cause problems,
e.g. $MF0,40:.......#CS, here pages 0 and 1 overlap. Is it possible to get gdb
to split this command into two page aligned commands? i.e. $MF0,10:...#CS, page
0 written, and $M100,30:...#CS, page 1 written.

Thanks,
Dave Mc Kenna
