Subject: [PATCH 3/5] Add "save user" command
Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2023 09:21:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230129162105.526266-4-tom@tromey.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230129162105.526266-1-tom@tromey.com>
PR cli/19395 points out that it would sometimes be convenient to save
one's user-defined commands to a file. This patch implements this
feature.
