# AUTOSAVE

Compatible with:
DOS Maximite CMM MM150 MM170 MM+ MMX Picromite ArmiteL4 Armite F4 ArmiteH7 Picomite CMM2

Syntax:
AUTOSAVE file$

Description:

CMM2:
Enter automatic program entry mode.
This command will take lines of text from the console serial input and save them to a file on the SD card specified as 'file$'.
This mode is terminated by pressing F1 on the console keyboard which will then cause the received data to be saved to the SD card.
Terminating the transfer by pressing F2 will cause a similar save but then the saved program will be immediately loaded into program memory and run.
Both F1 and F2 update the “current program name” which is used by RUN, LIST and EDIT when a file is not specified.
The transfer can also be terminated using F6 which acts the same as F1 without updating the current program name.
At any time this command can be aborted by Control-C which will leave program memory untouched.
This is one way of transferring a BASIC program into the Maximite.
The program to be transferred can be pasted into a terminal emulator and this command will capture the text stream and store it into program memory.
It can also be used for entering a small program directly at the console input.

Micromite only saves to memory (no file name) and ends with crtl-Z

Picromite only saves to memory (no file name) and ends with crtl-C

Maximite V1 uses 'AUTO' and only saves to memory (no file name) and ends with crtl-C
