         The format of Basic is as follows. Starting at $0801, the bytes
      0E 08 denote the placement of the next line number in memory in
      reverse order ($080E). The next two bytes, 05 00 denote the current
      line number in reverse order ($0005=5).
      
         Follow the bytes from here until you get to the next 00. This
      byte (residing at address $080D) denotes the end of the first line
      in this program. The next four bytes are again the pointers for the
      second line in our Basic program. The address $080E and $080F
      contain the bytes 35 08. These are the address of the next line
      number in our program, again in reverse order ($0835). The next two
      bytes starting at $0810 are 0A 00 which is the current line number
      of our program, again in reverse order (000A=0A in hex or line 10
      in decimal). This format is followed all through any normal Basic
      program and ends only when three hex zeros are encountered (00 00
      00). This tells Basic that the programs end has been found. You'll
      find these bytes in our example starting at $0883.
      
         This means that this program could be saved with your monitor
      using the addresses from $0801-$0885. The $0801 being the beginning
      of Basic and the $0885 the last of the three zero bytes. The actual
      save command would be <> S "FILENAHE",08,0801,0886 <>. We used the
      end address $0886 because all monitor saves need one extra byte
      added to the actual ending address ($0885+1=$0886).
      
         By understanding the structure of Basic, we can now repair any
      damage done to our pointers when we reset out of our program loads.
      Now let's move on to our example programs.
