→TAPE key
The '''TAPE''' key is used when you want to save a pattern or picture on a cassette tape and when you want to load the pattern or picture into the computer. When you press the '''TAPE''' key you see a screen that asks if you want to SAVE or LOAD. See the section to SAVE OR LOAD DATA (page 24) for a complete explanation of the use of the '''TAPE''' key.
====STOP and START keys====
These keys have several functions.
:■ In the PATTERNS sections, pressing '''STOP''' allows you to stop the pattern so you can look at it. Press START to start the pattern movement again.
:■ In the PICTURES sections, pressing '''STOP''' clears the screen so you can begin a new picture in the same activity.
:■ In "Color Life" pressing the '''STOP''' key enables you to stop the cell development at the end of the generation in progress. The cursor reappears, and you can then add to the design or erase part of the design on the screen. Press '''START''' to start the pattern development once more. (See "Color Life" on page 12 for a further explanation.)
