oldsave

oldsave — saving variables in 2.4.1 and previous format

Calling sequence

oldsave(filename [,x1,x2,...,xn])

`filename`	: character string or a logical unit returned by file('open',...)
`xi`	: arbitrary Scilab variable(s)

The oldsave function is obsolete and is retained only for compatibility purpose.

The oldsave command can be used to save Scilab current variables in binary form in a file.

oldsave(filename) saves all current variables in the file defined by filename.

oldsave(file-name,x,y) saves only named variables x and y.

Saved variables can be reloaded by the load or oldload command.



a=eye(2,2);b=ones(a);
oldsave('TMPDIR/val.dat',a,b);
clear a
clear b
oldload('TMPDIR/val.dat','a','b');
