<p><strong>Save State File Name:</strong><br>
This is the file name to use for save-state files. The default
directory is the same as where your AppleWin.exe program is stored.</p>
<p><strong>Save State on Exit:</strong><br>
Checking this box will automatically save the current state of the
emulator upon exit. &nbsp;The state will be saved to the file
specified above (SaveState.aws by default).</p>
<p><strong>Save State:</strong><br>
Press this button to save the current state of the emulator to the file
specified. &nbsp;You can also save the system state during
emulation by pressing the F11 key.</p>
<p><strong>Load State:</strong><br>
Press this button to load the specified state file into
the emulator. &nbsp;You can also load the system state during
emulation by pressing the F12 key.</p>
<p><strong>Clone:</strong><br>
If you have specified Computer as 'Clone' on the main Configuration
page, then this drop-down menu can be used to specify the clone type.<br>
NB. Pravets 82 and 8A are Bulgarian Apple II clones.<br>

<p><strong>Printer settings </strong>(Printer is
emulated at slot 1)</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;"><strong>Printer dump filename:<br>
</strong>Data sent to the printer is stored in a text file. Use
this setting to select its location.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;"><strong>Dump to printer:<br>
</strong><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Use
with caution!</span> Enables dumping to a real printer. If
disabled, the
printout is stored only in printer.txt file in the AppleWin folder.
This probably works properly (not tested) when using a printer
compatible with the printer selected in the Apple II applications. In
modern printers trying to print images will result in printing tens of
pages with nonsense.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;"><strong>Encoding conversion for clones:<br>
</strong>Characters are encoded from the character set used in
the real hardware to ASCII. For Pravets 8 this converts MIK to ASCII.
Enabling this could cause problems when&nbsp;printing images.</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;"><strong>Filter unprintable characters:<br>
</strong>Some characters represent commands for the printer and
shall not be printed. When saving them to the printer dump file they
may appear as some strange symbols. I may want to disable filtering
when dumping to printer.</p><p style="margin-left: 40px;"><strong>Append to printfile:<br>
</strong>When disabled previous print file is replaced (unless it has a
different&nbsp;name) by the newly created print file. Otherwise newly
printed data is added to the existing print file.&nbsp;I should better
disable appending
when dumping to printer.</p><p style="margin-left: 40px;"><strong>Terminate printing after idle:<br>
</strong>Whan printing is started a printer file is created and it is
closed either after the selected by this widget time expires, or when
the emulator is reset. This setting is emulation speed dependend.

<p><strong>The Freeze's non-autostart F8 rom:</strong><br>
If you have specified Computer as 'Apple ][' or 'Apple ][+' on the main
Configuration page, then you will be able to enable this setting.
The Freeze F8 rom is a hacker's rom that replaces the normal 2K rom at
$F800. <a href="cfg-advanced-freeze-rom.html">Here's the
