Saving Your Work to Disk in C128/C64 Modes
If you are using a prepackaged software program,
the user's manual that comes with the program will
probably tell you how to save your work, if neces
sary. The SAVE procedure for disk usually involves
a command like this in C128 or C64 mode:
SAVE "PROGRAM NAME",8
The program name is the name under which you
file your work. The program name can be any com
bination of alphanumeric characters, up to 16 in
all. Note again that the program name must always
be enclosed in quote marks.
In C128 mode only, you can use the DSAVE func
tion key to save your work to disk. In this case, you
press the F5 key just above the numeric keypad.
The computer screen displays:
DSAVE"
You then enter the program name and a closing set
of quote marks, and press RETURN. The computer
will display a message like this:
SAVING 0: PROGRAM NAME
When the program has been saved, the READY
message will flash.
