Great answer to prevent future problems, such as
"I didn't really want to do that."
thanks for reminding me about some really old options. ;)

A former co-worker of mine had a nifty paragraph he wrote which would edit,
compile, catalog and run a program in one fell swoop.
Because I detest wasting time with repetitive tasks, I've written a similar
program which also copies the current version of a program to a backup file
in case I trash it, or want to revert to a previous version.
EDBP [program.name] does the following:
1. Copies [program.name] to a backup directory (e.g. LOUIEB.BP) with a name
of program.name:"_":date():"_":time():"_".bak"
2. Executes ED LOUIEB.BP program.name
3. Executes BASIC and CATALOG commands unless I say no to a prompt.
4. Executes the cataloged command unless I say no to a prompt.
This is the poor dude's version control program.
