	Hello,

	I'm wondering if there is a way to save instances of objects and
retrieve them in CL.  It seems that can't be done by normal prints and reads
to a file-stream since the objects can't be printed-out readably (is that
CL is is that only my CLISP implementation?).

	Thanks!

	Martin Proulx

try #., compile-file, make-load-from, make-load-form-saving-slots
or use the save-object contributin in the lisp rep
