        dump(list, fileout="dumpdata")

   VVaalluuee::

        This function takes a list names of objects and pro-
        duces text representations of the objects in the given
        file.  At present the implementation of `dump' is very
        incomplete and it really only works for functions and
        simple vectors.

        The function save is designed to be used for transport-
        ing data between machines.
