It's a bit irritating to be told that something is preventing save, but
not told what that something is. (Reminds me of the story, hopefully
apocryphal, of a C compiler that had only one error message, "Syntax
Error", with no indication of where.)
Saw that multiple times on a Mod 1 MSR COBOL compiler on a Honeywell 115.
My wife was doing data entry at the time and saved my butt on a number
of occasions (my programs where keyed onto cards from a coding sheet).
"Is this supposed to be a period here?"
"Nope. Just a defect in the coding sheet paper."
"I thought so but Carla punched a period there. I'll fix it."
Still love that woman. 48 years tomorrow!
PS. Had a student once ask what was "Syntax". Told her it was the tax
the government applied for her sins!
