Is There a Way to Import Text Into a .BAS File?

[Paladin1870]

I have a PC-BASIC game design in mind which would need 48 similar GOSUB routines. In PC-BASIC I'd have to list one and change the line numbers to make the GOSUB copies (and then minor changes to each line). Doing copy-and-paste in a text editor and importing the lines of code would be much easier. Can this be done? Or does anyone have some other idea? Thanks!

Of course this can be done. BASIC programs can be loaded and saved as text files. Loading doesn't need special care. Saving needs the ,A parameter.
