Is there a way to COPY information from a DEBUG screen ?

I found some 8x8 character data for my 8x8 LED Matrix project:

http://multilabs.net/Files/ezDISPLAY_Mini_Built-In_Character_Bitmaps.pdf

I can enter the data into my other program in DATA statements but the characters show up reversed or flipped on my display (not 90 degrees off - then I would just rotate the display - but backwards looking). I then went to the BS2 help and found the REV command to reverse bits.

I have attached a short program that reads in the websites 8x8 character map and correct reverses them and displays the information in a DEBUG statement.

I was hoping to just copy this back into my program. However, DEBUG did not let met copy the entry listing.

Is there another way to do this? I don't think I can write this out to a file but there must be an easier way than to have to type the REVersed data back in again. There would be 127 - 32 DATA statments to retype.

Comments? Help.

    The only thing that comes to mind is copy and paste. You may be able to copy the information in the DEBUG screen using Ctrl-C and paste it into some text editor window using Ctrl-V, then go from there.
