  • Save Basic sources.How I can save Basic 128 sources in TAP (I use UnrealSpeccy) or TRD? [ This Message was edited by: Adramelek on 2005-02-22 01:16 ]

    I don't know, but ZX32 will create a .tap file for you very easily if that's any use. Just SAVE the BASIC/code /array file(s) as you would normally, then select "Save as" from the menu, and change the file type to a ZX Spectrum tape image.
