I don't know about him, but BSAVE is a greate way to save a screen/with
attributes to a file for later use. I used to utlize that technique to
allow users to build screen layouts for databases that I had designed. (In
addition to the image, I saved field attributes as well.) (I also used it
when memory was a premium.)
Any way, it WAS also good for saving and restoring arrays, etc. But, that
was back before memory was so free.
By the way, it would be nice to do block i/o. ( Don't bother, I've already
written a function for that...)
