Machine-code and
data files
Saving areas of memory
This command is used to save files such as machine-code
programs and data. The *SAVE command saves an area of
memory as a file.
Type:
*SAVE <filename><s> +<1>[RETURN]
<s> here stands for start address;
<1> for length of file.
EXAMPLE
Type:
*SAVE DATA 3000 +500[RETURN]
This saves the area of memory from 3000 to 3500 (hexadecimal
numbers) as a file called DATA. In this case 3000 was the start
address of the area in memory and 500 its length (in bytes).
Alternatively
type:
*SAVE <filename><s><e>[RETURNI]
<e> stands for end address.
EXAMPLE
Type:
*SAVE DATA 3000 3500[RETURN]
where 3000 is the start address and 3500 is the end address
of the section of memory you wish to save.
You can also specify an execution address. This is the location in
the file at which the file server will start when executing the file.
Type:
*SAVE <filename><s> +<1><e>[RETURN]
<e> stands for execution address.
* SAVE
