Operation Notes This command compiles, prepares, and executes a program from a BSAVE file created by the HP Business BASIC/V interpreter. This enables the program to run faster than it would if it were executed by the interpreter. You may create a BSAVE program file within the HP Business BASIC/V interpreter after it is saved by using the HP Business BASIC/V interpreter >SAVE filename command. The program then can be compiled, prepared, and executed with the BBASICGO command. Use This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may not be used in BREAK. Pressing Break suspends the execution of this command. Entering the RESUME command continues the execution.
