FIGURE 3.4.2.3. Save As Dialog
The Save button can be used to save changes to the program. For the most part, this is
unneccessary because files are always saved when leaving this screen. If a file is not saved
when the system is shut down, a dialog will prompt the user to save the file.
Clicking on New will display the New File dialog, shown in Figure 3.4.2.4 on page 48.
The interface is a standard file browser, discussed in “File Browser” on page 23. Once the
dialog is used to specify a name, location and comment for the new program, the text area
is cleared and can then be edited. The first line of the program has already been added, and con-
sists of the program name followed by the comment in parenthesis. If there is no text entered in
the comment field, no comment or parenthesis will be added to the new file. It is not possible to
create a file named O00000. Because of block size limitations, comments are limited to 117 char-
acters or less.
