additional functions. If the final parameter is 1, the file cannot be relocated when
subsequently LOADed. If the final parameter is 2, an end-of-tape marker (rather
than an end-of-file) is written after the file on the tape. If the final parameter is 3,
these two features are combined. If it is omitted, or is 0, neither feature is
implemented.
Note: Files that cannot be relocated are LOADed into the memory locations
from which they were SAVEd, regardless of the status of the relocate flag in the
LOAD command. The BASIC pointers at $2D to $32 (45-50) may be adversely
altered by this event.
Saving to Tape
When you issue the SAVE command, the computer displays the message
PRESS PLAY AJSTD RECORD ON TAPE
Press the recorder buttons. Use the VERIFY command to make sure the
program was stored accurately.
Saving to Disk
When you issue the SAVE command, the disk light comes on. Do not remove the
disk until the program is saved and the red light goes off. You can use the
DIRECTORY command to view the disk directory and confirm that the file is
saved. Use the VERIFY command to make sure the program was stored
accurately.
Examples: SAVE "CIRCLE4" Stores file CIRCLE4 on tape.
SAVE "SHAPES9",8 Stores file SHAPES9 on disk.
SAVE "GAME",1, 2 Stores file GAME on tape with an end-of-tape
marker.
