Restores macros or variables from a file that was previously created
by the STORE command.
Syntax |
 |
RESTORE MACROS filename
RESTORE VARIABLES filename
|
The RESTORE command quickly restores saved macros or variables from
a binary file that was created by the STORE command.
Based on the selector (MACROS or VARIABLES), all currently defined macros or variables are immediately discarded, and are replaced entirely by the contents of the STORE file.
The current limits (as set by ENV MACROS or ENV VARS and ENV VARS_LOC) are automatically changed to the limits that were in effect at the time the STORE file was created.
After the RESTORE, macros or variables can be referenced, created, listed, or deleted in the normal manner.

The name of the file (previously built by the STORE command) from which the macros or variables are to be restored.
