You can use the counter on the Datassette to identify the starting
position of the programs. Then, when you want to retrieve a
program, simply wind the tape forward from 000 to the program's
start location, and type:
nn iiiiii
l o a d
ln this case, you do not have to specify the PROGRAM NAME;
your program will load automatically because it is the next
program on the tape.
NOTE:
During the LOAD process, the program being
LOADed is not erased from the tape; it is simply copied into
the computer. However, LOADing a program automatically
erases any BASIC program that may have been in the
computer's memory.
OTHER DISK-RELATED COMMANDS
VERIFYING A PROGRAM
To verify that a program has been correctly saved or loaded,
type:
VERIFY"PROGRAM NAME",
If the program in the computer is identical to the one on the disk,
the screen display will respond with the letters " OK" .
The VERIFY command also works for tape programs. You type:
VERIFY"PROGRAM NAME"
Note that you do not enter the comma and the number 8, since 8
indicates that you are working with a disk program.
