1. In a new IDL session type help to see the IDL variables
IDL> restore,'idlsave.dat'
IDL> help,/var ;List all IDL variables

2. Use the /VERBOSE keyword to RESTORE to see what variables are being restored

3. Use the IDL_savefile object to list the contents of a save file without having to restore it. I often use the IDL_Savefile object to restore only selected variables in the save set.
