|  Screen Save
Anyone remember a program called "Screen Save" that was used for saving code on a C16/+4 in a compressed "Novaload" like way?
As I remember you would load a game then reset the computer to the monitor. Then load the "Screen Save" program from tape.
The clever thing was it loaded to the colour map 0x0800 and lower screen map 0x0C00 so would not touch any of the actual RAM used by the program/game. I think you would then do something like G800,1000,3FFF to run "Screen Save" and save the memory in the compressed format on tape.
Anyone remember or am I just rambling?
