<H1><A NAME="SEC106" HREF="vice_toc.html#TOC106">8  Snapshots</A></H1>

<P>
Every VICE emulator has a built-in snapshot feature, that saves the
complete emulator state into one file for later use.
You can therefore save the emulator state - including the state of
the game you are playing for example - in a single file. 

</P>



<H2><A NAME="SEC107" HREF="vice_toc.html#TOC107">8.1  Snapshot usage</A></H2>

<P>
A snapshot is one file containining the complete emulator state.  A
snapshot file can be generated by selecting the "Save snapshot"
command at any time.  This will pop up a requester from which you can
specify whether the snapshot should also contain the disk and ROM
status.

</P>
<P>
A snapshot file can be used to restore the emulator state by selecting
the <CODE>load snapshot</CODE> menu entry at any time.
Unfortunately attached ROM images/cartridges are only supported in the VIC20,
the PET and the CBM-II emulators at this time.

</P>
<P>
The memory configuration of the emulator is saved in the snapshot file as
well. This configuration is restored when the snapshot is loaded.

</P>
<P>
A quick snapshot can now be made by pressing the <CODE>M-F11</CODE> key and
reloaded by pressing the <CODE>M-F10</CODE> key. 

</P>


<H2><A NAME="SEC108" HREF="vice_toc.html#TOC108">8.2  Snapshot format</A></H2>

<P>
A snapshot file consists of several modules of mostly different types.
Each module has a name and saves the state of an entity like a CIA, the CPU, 
or the memory.

</P>



<H3><A NAME="SEC109" HREF="vice_toc.html#TOC109">8.2.1  Emulator modules</A></H3>

<P>
This section lists the modules that are contained in each of the
emulators snapshot files.

<P>
This section shows the basic module framework and the contents of the
different types of modules.

</P>
<P>
The single chip modules contain the <B>chip</B> state, not the state of the
emulator.  We tried to make the format as implementation-independent as
possible, to allow reuse of snapshots in later versions of this
emulator, or even in other emulators.

</P>



<H4><A NAME="SEC117" HREF="vice_toc.html#TOC117">8.2.2.1  Terminology</A></H4>

<P>
In this section we use certain abbreviations to define the types of the
data saved in the snapshot.

</P>
<DL COMPACT>

<DT><CODE>BYTE</CODE>
<DD>
8 bit integer.
<DT><CODE>WORD</CODE>
<DD>
16 bit integer.  Saved with low-byte first, high-byte last.
<DT><CODE>DWORD</CODE>
<DD>
32 bit integer.  Saved with low-word first, then high-word.  Each word saved with its low-byte first.
<DT><CODE>ARRAY</CODE>
<DD>
Array of BYTE values.  Length depends on the description.
</DL>

<P>
The tables for the single modules state the type, name and description
of the data saved in the modules.  The data is saved in the order it is
in the tables, so no offset is given.

The file header is followed by a number of different snapshot modules.

</P>
<P>
Each module has a header with the information given in the table below.
The header includes two version numbers, VMAJOR and VMINOR.  Modules
with the same VMAJOR should be able to be exchanged.  I.e. higher VMINOR
numbers only append to the data for lower VMINOR.  This additional data
is ignored by older restore routines.  The other way around newer
restore routines must accept the fewer info from lower VMINOR dumps.
Changes in VMAJOR might introduce any incompatibility you like, but
that's what VMAJOR is for after all :-)

some are delayed versions. For more read the source file

When saving a snapshot, those connections are of course lost.

is already open when restoring the snapshot, this connection is used

The PET memory module actually consists of two modules.  The "PETMEM" module
is mandatory and contains the RAM dump.  The "PETROM" module is optional
and contains a dump of the ROM images.

</P>
<P>
The size of the PET memory modules differs with each different memory
configuration.  The RAM configuration is saved in the snapshot, and
restored when the snapshot is loaded.

The last item has been added in PETMEM snapshot version 1.1. It is
ignored by earlier restore routines (V1.0) and the V1.1 restore routines
do not change the current setting when reading a V1.0 snapshot.

In V1.2 the new EOIBLANK variable has been added. This implements
the "blank screen on EOI" feature that was previously linked to a wrong

The memory array starts at $10000 if the memory size is less than 512k,
