BSave v1.0 - Oct. 1988

                SAVE ANY AREA OF MEMORY - TINY 1K COMMAND  

     I learned assembly programing on a C-128. On that great machine, you can
save any part of the memory with the BSAVE (binary save) command. Most
Amiga debuggers have a "L" (load) command , but no "S" (save) command. So I
wrote one. It is tiny (just under 1K) and can be called either from the CLI
or the Workbench. Just follow the prompts. Entering bad values (non hex) will
generate an empty file. Saving in the RAM: disk is faster, but it may shift
elsewhere the code you are trying to save. If so, save on a disk to stop
chasing your tail. Saving in some "active" areas may crash the system. Before
saving, check with a debugger running from another already open CLI (I use
Debug). BSave is great for that quicksand-type environment. It can be called
either from the Workbench ,but it really belongs to the "c" drawer.

     Another command I would like to have is the "H" (hunt) command. It is
possible to use Newzap to do a search on a BSaved file, but what about a
direct command? Does on exists or should I make it up, too?
