SAVE CHR$ USR 832 “program name” works very well to save my unSAVEable programs (SYNTAX Jul.83 p.6). But the short time interval between LOAD and SAVE (about five seconds) prevents changing tapes to SAVE the program, as the author suggests. Instead, allow the system to go into SAVE and then press BREAK (obtaining an error report). Then LIST the program to find the line with SAVE “program name.” Set your recorder in a normal, unpanicky time-frame. Next, enter GOTO (line number with SAVE). This method works well on all my unSAVEable programs. Congratulations to Gary for devising this trick.
