[Coco] Dragon Disk Basic commands/syntax

I was asked to write a program to transfer files from Dragon disks to 
Coco disks. I think I now have one ready for use even though all it does 
is move the files while making no other changes. Obviously any Dragon 
file needs to be altered to some extent to make it usable on a coco.

It is the last statement that I'd like clarified. Is there any Dragon 
file type usable on the Coco with essentially no changes? I had assumed 
the Dragon could save Basic files in ASCII format but have been unable 
to verify this in any of the specs I've found on the Dragon.

Is there the equivalent of SAVE"filename.BAS",A on the DRAGON? Is it 
possible to create Dragon Basic files in ASCII format by any method?
