Dear Ruud,



  Thanks for your feedback (even though I eventually found a different solution).



> See "writebin"



Unfortunately, writebin is not very helpful here, because you cannot chain writebins :

what I mean is that, if you start one GP session and do x=1;writebin("xInBinary");,

open a second session and do read("xInBinary");y=x+7;writebin("yInBinary");, open a third session and do read("yInBinary");,the GP interpreter will remember the x but not the y.



But this is exactly the functionality I'm looking for here, that of separating several expensive

subcomputations inside a global computation.  You cannot do that with writebin.
