The object type and ID enable you to store hundreds of objects without losing track of them, and
also to load Þles from disk without having to replace Þles youÕve already loaded. See
Memory
Banks
on page 5-6 for more information on object type and ID.
Saving and Naming
When youÕve edited an object to your satisfaction, youÕll want to store it in RAM. ThereÕs a
standard procedure for saving and naming, which applies to all objects.
You can press the
Save
soft button, of course, but itÕs easier to press the
Exit
button, which
means ÒI want to leave the current editor.Ó If you havenÕt actually changed anything while in
the editor, youÕll simply exit to the mode you started from. If you
have
made changes, however,
the K2600 will ask you if you want to save those changes. This is the Þrst Save dialog. A dialog is
any display that asks a question that you need to answer before the K2600 can proceed.
The following diagram shows the Save dialog for the Program Editor. The top line tells you that
you got to this dialog by pressing Exit. If you had pressed the Save soft button instead of Exit,
youÕd see Save in the top line, instead of Exit. If you were in another editor, the top line would
indicate that as well.

The best way through this process is to press the
Rename
soft button. This takes you
immediately to the naming dialog, where you assign a name to the object youÕre saving. You
havenÕt saved yet, but youÕll be able to after youÕve named the program.

Like the Save dialog, the top line identiÞes the current editor and function, and also indicates
whether the keyboard naming feature is enabled (see
Keyboard Naming
on page 5-5).
The cursor underlines the currently selected character. Press the
<<<
or
>>>
soft buttons to
move the cursor without changing characters. Press an alphanumeric button one or more times
to enter a character above the cursor. The characters that correspond to the alphanumeric
buttons are labeled under each button. If the character that appears is not the one you want,
