Saving files.


When you have finished your code, you can save it to disk. This will generate a plain text file that can be read with all text-editors like Notepad or Word and is suitable for Turbo Assembler. When you choose to save your file a dialog will appear so that you can enter a file name.

Long file names: Tasm IDE supports long file names, but Turbo Assembler doesn't. Tasm IDE will convert them to MS-DOS 8.3 format when invoking Tasm and Tlink, so it will work fine. Watch out when you use the command line to compile your targets: now you have to use MS-DOS 8.3 format. When you encounter problems with long file names, try downloading the patch for this from Borland at http://www.borland.com/.

Once you have saved the file, Tasm IDE will store this name and won't bother you with this again. If you save changes again, the file will be overwritten without notice.
