28.2 Saving and Loading

In general when saving or loading a file the following prompt appear in a top right window:

SAVE [or LOAD] [type] - filename (no ext) .[extension] will be added

(change drive or dir-d) [current path]

list-?, quit-q, default [ filename]

For example, if you are running DDLab from the directory ``c: tex2html_wrap_inline1077 ddlab'' and loading a screen image the prompt will appear as follows,

LOAD SCREEN - filename (no ext) .NAT will be added

(change drive or dir-d) C: tex2html_wrap_inline1077 DDLAB

list-?, quit-q, default myimage

To load (or save) enter a legal filename (without the filename extension, which is automatically added), or enter ``return'' to accept the default filename ``myimage``. If the file is not found, the following message appears,

No such file or directory, RETURN-continue
