Just to make sure:
KEY 1,CHR$(133)
KEY 2,CHR$(134)
KEY 3,CHR$(135)
KEY 8,CHR$(136)
Change the menu to "F1 - Quit, F2 - New, F3 - LOAD, HELP - SAVE"
You might want to redefine the other keys to "nothing" because in the usual state they will represent multiple key strokes. Which leads us to the next problem: CHR$(34) (it's used on key 5 if not redefined) will mess up the program. So you should check for it anyway. Press (") and see what happens.
Also make sure that "SAVE" is not a valid option if no file has been opened before (or no new file has been created).
Generally, check your programs on plus/4 (or in an emulator) to see if they work. There are lots of "pseudo-converted" programs which seem to run at first sight but run into problems at some point (e.g. "unconverted" C 64 POKES, wrong colors). Afterall, this is a plus/4 related community
