I recently aquired a CP/M board with Turbo Pascal ver. 3.01a Unfortunatly with no instructions. I figured out how to use the editor and save the source code but I don't know how to save an executable. Can someone please help me? Thanks, Don

So you got this system for a price, and did not receive the manuals? Okay, I'll buy that. Now, to use the compiler to it's fullest, you WILL need the manual. My recommendation? Go buy a copy of IBM PC Turbo Pascal, the manual is the same and should answer ALL of your questions. Other wise, you'll find yourself asking one heck of alot more questions than you will get answers for. In the mean time, the command to compile to disk is OCQC. It should have been self evident by trying all of the available menus, but since you didn't figure this out, I REALLY RECOMMEND you buy a manual.....

To "save an executable", after you're finished _Editing_, but before
you _Compile_, go to the Main menu, and hit "O" for options.
At the top, there will be three choices:
->Memory
cHain
Com (or some such)
The default is compiling to Memory; a cHain file is saved to disk, but
you must Run it from inside Turbo, or chain to it from a Com file; a Com file
is just that -- runnable from CP/M. Com files are saved to disk and include
all the run-time routines needed by the program.
