SAVE
An assembler for the Burroughs 220 written

anything; it was just that you lost fewer card decks and

8. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018) |
save
To copy data to a more
permanent form of storage. The term is commonly used for when
some kind of document editing application program writes the
current document from RAM to a file on hard disk at the
request of the user. The implication is that the user might
later load the file back into the editor again to view it,
print it, or continue editing it. Saving a document makes it
safe from the effects of power failure.
The "document" might actually be anything, e.g. a word
processor document, the current state of a game, a piece of
music, a website, or a memory image of some program being
executed (though the term "dump" would probably be more common
here).
Data can be saved to any kind of (writable) storage: hard
disk, floppy disk, CD-R; either locally or via a
network.
A program might save its data without any explicit user
request, e.g. periodically as a precaution ("auto save"), or
if it forms part of a pipeline of processes which pass data
via intermediate files. In the latter case the term suggests
all data is written in a single operation whereas "output"
might be a continuous flow, in true pipeline fashion.
When copying several files from one storage medium to another,
the terms "backup", "dump", or "archive" would be used rather
than "save". The term "store" is similar to "save" but
typically applies to copying a single item of data, e.g. a
number, from a processor's register to RAM.
A "save" operation saves the document in its native format,
e.g. a proprietary word processor format, whereas "save as"
(or "export") saves the same data in a different format,
e.g. a plain text file.
