30. Program verify ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To see if a BASIC program has been successfully SAVEd to tape, without losing the current program from memory, type *LOAD "" 8000 , (note the empty quotes). This works well for programs of not more than 16k in length, as it is simply trying to 'write' into the BASIC ROM, which it cannot do. However, all the normal error-checking of the tape data takes place, accompanied by the usual "Searching" and "Loading" messages. If you have sideways RAM, then you should operate the write-protect switch to avoid garbage being written into the RAM.
