        dput(x, file = "")
        dget(file)

   VVaalluuee::

        `dput' opens `file' and deparses the object `x' into
        that file.  The object name is not written (contrary to
        `dump').  If `x' is a function the associated environ-
        ment is stripped.  Hence scoping information can be
        lost.

        Using `dget', the object can be recreated (with the
        limitations mentioned above).

   SSeeee AAllssoo::

        `deparse', `dump', `write'.

   EExxaammpplleess::

        ## Write an ASCII version of mean to the file "foo"
        dput(mean, "foo")
        ## And read it back into `bar'
        bar <- dget("foo")
