Parameters

DEBUG SAVE — MicroVMS 4.6

     Saves the contents of an existing screen display in a new  screen
     display.   This command thus permits a "snapshot" of a display to
     be saved for later reference.  The new display  is  created  with
     the  same  textual  contents  as  the  existing display.  It also
     inherits all other attributes of the existing display except that
     it  is  removed  from  the  screen  and it is never automatically
     updated.  The saved display can later be displayed on the  screen
     with the DISPLAY command.

 Format:

     SAVE old-disp AS new-disp [, old-disp AS new-disp...]

 Example:

     DBG> SAVE SRC AS SAVESRC ! Save away source display
     DBG> STEP;STEP;STEP      ! Step to another place
     DBG> DISPLAY SAVESRC     ! Bring back saved source display
