Is there a way of saving a snapshot of a running BASIC program that won't fail with weird syntax errors when you reload it? It seems that all of the (Mac OS or Java) emulators I try don't quite save state enough to restore a BASIC program. It'll run fine if you type RUN, but always seems to give this error if you try to reload a running BASIC program.
In JavaCPC the SNA function is very poor. Don't know (yet) what's bad with it.
For other MacOS emulators I cannot say... sorry...
Better save your BASIC program to DSK ;)

I use MacCPC and I don't get problem saving and restoring SNA with BASIC programs. (sure, not more than 20 lines for mock-up)

Sounds like a problem in banking between ROM and RAM. What else must be considered:
- Status of PIO and PSG!!!
- E-RAM
- Interrupt modus
- All other GA stuff ...

Yeah I know...
I think it's a bug in reading the PPI status...

Yup, MacCPC saves a perfect snapshot; thanks!
What's about WinCPC (should be very similar, right?)
