Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

DuinoMite MMBasic 4.4
No PC ....

I can save routines with SAVE
from the first screen but F1 on
the 'editor' page doesn't work.
Am I missing something ?

If you load a file into memory, then edit, then F1 save, you are only saving your changes to the copy in RAM. EG:

LOAD EXAMPLE.BAS
EDIT
'file editing in full screen editor
'F1 key press

However editing a file stored on a: or b: should cause the F1 key to save back to the original file.

NEW
EDIT EXAMPLE.BAS
'More file editing
'F1 key press

Of course, I could be wrong LOL.
Check out the MMBasic manual for a better description of how the full screen editor handles saves.

Maybe I'll just use F1 as a prompt to SAVE ........
