does it mean, you can copie values from a address to another?

yes and no, it's used to move data into and out of registers. Like you could copy some value from one address into some register, then from that register into the new mem location, but i would just use gecko registers for that :P

Are you certain?  I was under the impression that the "registers" referred to in that description are the Gecko Registers.  E.g. you would put an address in a GR, and be able to copy data to/from that address.  But I've never used that codetype, so I'll let someone else weigh in.   :)

*facepalm* you're right...  That's what i get for trying to post when i'm tired.  and in the codetype doc they use grN and grM sooooooooo...
