[Gary Newell wrote asking how to move Icon executables to other machines.]
save() was only implemented on a very few, now obsolete operating systems
and CPU architectures. Its presence in the red icon book is rather
misleading, since it was never available for most platforms. The best way
to move executables is to compile them with iconc if you can; otherwise
they need to move iconx onto the server, and either setenv ICONX to point
to where iconx is installed or else run patchstr on the binaries to point
them at the iconx.
