SAVE FILE AS
Saves your edits, writing out the current buffer to a file you specify,
without ending the editing session. (Same as WRITE FILE.)
Example:
The following commands open a file called ROUGH.DAT in the current
window and then save your edits as a file called FINAL.TXT, rather than
as a new version of ROUGH.DAT:
OPEN rough.dat
SAVE FILE AS final.txt
o Specifying an output file not change the buffer name, but does
associate that file specification with the buffer for later SAVE FILE
or WRITE FILE commands and for exiting (except with system buffers).
o If you do NOT specify an output file, EVE asks for one. If you then do
not specify a file, EVE uses the output file specification associated
with the buffer, if there is one (same as SAVE FILE). Typically, this
is the same as the file you specified when you invoked EVE or when you
created the buffer with the OPEN, OPEN SELECTED, or GET FILE command.
