; This is the header for the assembler file to:
; Saver01 -- *experimental* saverest with 4 screens -- adapted
; from SAVEREST by H.M. Van Tassell
; To generate .BIN file for for dBaseIII LOAD/CALL
; 1. MASM saveres4;
; 2. LINK saveres4;
; 3. EXE2BIN saveres4
; Use the file saveres4.BIN with your dBaseIII+ program
; Syntax:
; LOAD SAVER01
; CALL SAVER01 WITH "Sx" or "Rx" where "x" is between
; 0 and 3 ONLY!! (other values will do nothing).
; Added 8/11/86 -- ability to save/restore to/from files
; Syntax:
; *MUST* be called with a memvar argument!
; *evidently, dBASE does not treat literal strings quite
; *the way it treats memvars when passing (or anytime I guess)
; CALL saver01 with memvar
; *--if memvar="Wxpathname" will save area x to file "pathname"
; *--if memvar="Lxpathname" will restore area x from file "pathname"
;
; What's next?
; 1) "popups"--that is, partial screens
; 2) compatibility with files produced by UI and SAYWHAT?!
; (What this means, boys and girls, is do not expect upward compatibility
; and hardcode in anything--the params will most likely change quite a bit.)

; If you wish to support the development of this and other ASM routines,
; here's the scoop:
;
; I have released a number of programs into the public domain with no
; request for compensation. However, the subsequent releases of this
; routine and other stuff I am preparing will be an experiment with
; "shareware" until I see if I am getting any response. If you wish to
; be included in the mailing list for the eventual release of an advanced
; dBASE text and sample programs, as well as updates for the ASM routines
; I have been writing, drop me a donation which will hopefully cover at
; least the cost of mailing you a disk. At present any extra funds will
; finance the creation of a BBS and more time for development. BTW, since
; I haven't finished this thing yet and it's really sloppy, I do *not*
; include the source code, but will include any parts of it which are not
; proprietary to The Research Group or Wallsoft Systems in the future. RF
