I'd be glad if someone had a real solution for that task, too.

So far I used something along the lines of

   call sprintf(address, "%d %s ..", token, ... )

to write something to target memory, but I am looking for an alternative
too, as this gets mis-parsed in some cases.

Maybe  

   restore filename [binary] bias start end

as described in section 8.16 of the manual would help, but that seems to
require the contents to be put in a file first. Not really convenient either...
