alt Hacker Newsim curious about the process to find that initial buffer address - does that involve entering a few different strings and searching the memory snapshot for those byte patterns ?

Yeah, exactly! I took a couple memory snapshots of the name "AAA" and then threw out all of the addresses that had values that didn't match the first snapshot. Then I changed it to "BBB" and threw out all the addresses that did match.
There's a program called Cheat Engine that can make this a point and click thing; that's usually how people find GameShark-style codes.
