Looks like the file resulting from the pre-processing CMM2 does to speed up a program when run.
  CMM2 Manual said  The reason for this arrangement is that when a program is loaded into memory for execution MMBasic will do a lot of pre-processing to speed up execution. This includes inserting any include files specified in the source, stripping out all comments, removing unnecessary spaces and so on. The resultant program is then saved in program memory but it cannot be edited or listed because after pre-processing the executable program is not easily human readable.
... and is the reason CMM2 does not have a save command and uses F1 or F2 instead. Looks like MMB4W is saving this post processed file and not the original text file.
