HP IBASIC Supplement 4-7
Saving and Recalling Programs
Recalling a Program
Recalling a Program
To recall a program file from mass storage to the program buffer, use the
menu to catalog the disk. Select the
desired mass storage device or disk, use the arrow keys to highlight the
file and press .
The recalled program file is entered into the program buffer one line at a
time and checked for syntax errors. Lines with syntax errors are
commented out and the IBASIC syntax error is displayed briefly in an
error message and written to the CRT at the same time. To view error
messages logged to the CRT, use the
menu to allocate a screen partition for IBASIC.
NOTE Recalled programs overwrite the current program. Any program recalled
to the program buffer using the menu will overwrite the
current contents of the program buffer. Be sure to save your current
program before recalling another program from disk.
CAT to a String Array Exception
The analyzer's treatment of CAT to a string array is not the standard as
documented in the HP IBASIC Language Reference. If you send the
catalog to a string array, the array must contain at least 59 characters
for a directory listing rather than the standard 80.
