dump(c("fred","make.fred"), file = "A:\\myfile")Provided you had a floppy disk in the A: drive, you would then have a file called myfile on that disk. It would be a text file; you could look at it with an editor.
You could give your disk to a friend, who might copy the file to something like "C:\\yourfile" (no need to use the same name), or to some other place where your friend is allowed to write. From within Splus, your friend could then type
source("C:\\yourfile")to have Splus recreate both the fred and make.fred objects in the working directory. Your friend could also work directly from the floppy:
source("A\\myfile")
data.dump(c("fred","make.fred"), file = "A:\\myfile")and
data.restore("A:\\myfile")
