It has to deleate the original, else in the archive, there are two copies of the same program. Read up on how the archive works.

What it does is copies BASIC programs into prgmZ1., which I don't want to do due to the multi-program BASIC thing. BASIC programs rarely crash themselves. 
true, but you should still find a way to copy programs from ROM, not unarchive them.

I was wondering what that program was called, Kerm, do something like that.

mirage = copies to ram if writebacks are DISABLED; but MOVES it to ram if writebacks are ENABLED (for asm progs anyway, basic it might just always copy)
funny...i've had several diff basic progs clear my ram when run from DCS5

wouldn't that be dangerous for the flash in the even of a crash? If you were to use that, If you, were to have a crash, wouldn't the flash and ram be screwed

Yeah, but not because of the program, it was a DCS bug that I think I eliminated.

which? if it is copied or moved? only if it crashes DURING the move, which i can't say has ever happened......(no clue what that would do to the flash, but that can be cleared too in worst-case scenarios)
if it crashes while running the asm prog, then the ram clears and everything just keeps on working
Exactly. You can only corrupt Flash ROM by interrupting a MOVE, not COPY, in the middle. Which is why I avoid that.

What about Flash Gordon? It runs programs directly from flash...
You see what I meant was that Flash Gordon seems dangerous for the flash, because as TI Freak describes it, it would be running from flash!
Is flash gordon the one that allows you to run basic progs from the archive? Because if it is, i've used that, and it copies it to the ram and then runs it.
That's what I thought it would do, because it would seem crazy to run straight from flash. I didn't think that was even possible, but the way tifreak described it, it sounded like it ran from flash.
i don't know if it is possible, or if it just "streams" it to the ram to give the effect of running from flash
