A small routine running on the stamp can dump the contents of its own
memory out the serial port to your PC to be captured as hex data.
bv var byte
ix var word
for ix=0 to 2047
read ix,bv
debug hex2,bv
next
You just need to figure out a way to trigger this routine, so that it will
not affect the normal operation of your program.
The Stache module can capture BS2 or BS2SX programs, and then deliver them
to a Stamp at another place and time.

software supports a bsave/bload function, wouldn't it be the hardware that
would interpret these commands? Wouldn't the stamp IC have to understand
what those functions are?
Just a little note, in the spirit of learning. [noparse]:)[/noparse]

Aparently Parallax will support the bsave/bload functions in the next

for BS1's) 2K for a BS2SX, etc. The BLOAD function acts as a programmer. You
connect the stamp to the computer run the bload function and it loads that
code onto the stamp. There is documentation for BSAVE / BLOAD in the stamp
guide.

Any idea when it will be out? v1.1 was supposed to be out 'a few weeks
after' 1.096 Beta which came out in early '99. I thought I saw messages that
it would be out August-September.
I hope that they came with a good answer.
