I think this is not difficult, but I have looked the whole day, and I can't find why my memory is too small.
I want to save my temperature program for PC, but I doesn't succeed.
Pico Mite MM.VER doesn't give any result.

When I write XMODEM SEND I got
Error: Not enough memory
When I write Memory I got
Program:
1k (0%) Program (76 lines)
123K (100%) Free
RAM:
0k (0%) 0Variables
1k (0%) General
155k (100%)Free
==
I deleted the whole program.
Then I started to write a program again and I got it working (a Stainhart 10k NTC temperature program)
When I got it ready and I tried to save it send it to PC. same problem.

What I can do?
A new Pico?

First you need to isolate the problem.

Is it PicoMite or PicoMite VGA or the new Wireless version?
Which version of MMBasic are you using?
What OPTIONs have you got set up?
Do other programs load and run normally?

Try opening the editor ("edit") and leaving it again (ESC), before you call "xmodem s".

Now I resolve this.
I press
>OPTION RESET
>XMODEM SEND
then from TERATERM FILE/TRANFER/XMODEM/RECEIVE
I selected a new file and my program was in safe.
I didn't know what OPTION RESET did, but it allowed me to safe the file.

Hi Pekka,

When you stop the program with ctrl-c, all variabels are preserveren, for debugging purpose.
You dan release thuis memory with option resetten, or gong into the editor and exit.

You are using xmodem to save to pc. Maybe you would-be benefit from using mmedit.
Try it, it is great.
