How to enter poke codes?

I am sorry if I missed something in the documentation, but I can't figure out how to enter poke codes. When I load a game (Miner 2049'er), it auto-starts? I forgot how we did it back then... Please halp!

It autostarts because *you* told CCS to do so. Anyway, if you know the SYS address to restart game, simply
reset (Alt-r) then
POKE address, value
and
SYS address

If you know only the poke values use the internal monitor (Alt-m)
convert the decimal values to hexadecimal, like this:
a "poke 4096,128"
? #4096 (gives $1000)
? #128 (gives $80)
so now all you have to do is
M 1000
to see the current values
:1000 80
to set the new value

when you have done press Esc
