Altair 680 CSAVE Problems!@ : (

[Grant Stockly]

I'm having a ton of trouble saving a program on a cassette tape using 
Altair 680 basic.  Was there a KCACR basic made without the CSAVE 
command?  My basic appears to have a CSAVE command, but it won't accept the 
name!!!!!  : (

I'm sending this to two groups.  I've been at this problem for hours 
now...  : (

I'll post a transcript below.  Let me know what I'm doing wrong!  : (

--------------------
.J FD00 (cassette bootstrap rom address)
(basic loading)
(basic loaded)
.J 0000 (run basic...)
MEMORY SIZE?
TERMINAL WIDTH? 80
WANT SIN-COS-TAN-ATN? YES

OK
10 PRINT "HELLO"
20 GOTO 10
CSAVE A

?TM ERROR
OK
--------------------

TM is a type mismatch error.  SM is for a command it doesn't 
understand.  Watch...
--------------------
CSAVE A
?TM ERROR
OK

CSAVE
?SN ERROR
OK

AHHHH!
?SN ERROR
OK

AHHHH! A
?SN ERROR
OK
--------------------

Am I wrong assuming that because it gives me a TM error instead of SN that 
it is "trying" to work?  I get the same things for CLOAD...  How in the 
world are you supposed to save something to tape!  : (

If I have the wrong version of basic, anyone have the right one?  What will 
it take for me to get a copy!  : )  (first smile in this e-mail...  ; )  )

Thanks,
