:idea: It would be so awesome if I could Trace >[file].

Unless there's already a way to do this that I don't know about? :wink:

Yes, it does work. I just verified it. I'm using BR 4.2, but TRACE PRINT has been around forever.

LOAD PROGRAM
RUN TRACE PRINT >tracefilename

When the program exits, the file is there. TRACE PRINT (without the redirection to a file) was originally designed to print directly to a printer (it still works too). But wastes a lot of paper so I don't do that generally.

AWESOME!!! That works for me, too! Thank you so much, Susan!

As a side note, what did not work for me was "GO trace print >file"

:P
