On the other hand, this solution requires that you need to know the
structure of the variable before you read it, and you have to set up a
"blank" version of it in advance. For quick command-line stuff, the sav
version saves you a lot of thinking and typing -- it just saves and
restores any arbitrary variable with a single command. I use it a lot.

Cheers,
Benjamin
