Sometime you disable ZXpand because some software will not work with it.
However how do you save your work, when ZXpand has been disabled?
If you type these three commands ZXpand will be re-enabled again:
Code: Select all
CLEAR
LET A$="[graphic 1] [graphic E] STEP Y [inverse L] GOSUB"+CHR$ 121+"TAN"
RAND USR PEEK 16400+PEEK 16401*256
(There are no spaces in line 2, and commands are not spelled e.g not T A N but FUNCTION TAN.)
Line 2 will look this before pressing NEWLINE:

Thank you Martin,
That can be useful. Is it the same code for the zxpand+ ?

Charlie actually showed us this much simpler method some years back, 8 bytes in a REM statement then call as needed.
QUOTE.....
"This should do it.
; re-enable the overlay
ld bc,$e007
ld a,$b1
out (c),a
Here are the hex codes for your favourite hex-code entering system:
01, 07, E0, 3E, B1, ED, 79, C9
and in decimal for the pokers out there:
Code: Select all
1, 7, 224, 62, 177, 237, 121, 201
which are also this week's lottery numbers*.

Yes. That’s the bytes I’m using.
But having a file to load is not helping much, when the ZXpand is disabled.
That’s why I recreated it as a short type-in.

Just poke the 8 bytes into a rem as part of your work to be saved, call it then save, works for me.
