load:

Syntax:	load( "filename" )

Description:

	Load opens the file name denoted by string argument and reads
	it's contents as though a user were typing the contents at the
	command line. Thus a user can use load() to enter data,
	user-functions, or execute repetitive commands saved in a
	file. there is no limit to the number of functions, or regular
	statements that can exist in a file called by load().

	Immediately after the the input is read, load() closes the
	file, so that subsequent calls to load() will re-open the
	file. 

	Load requires that a complete file specification be provided.
	If the file is in the present working directory, then only the
	filename is necessary otherwise, a complete path is required.

	In most cases the rfile command is simpler to use.

	Example:

	// load the roots() function into memory
	> load( "roots.r" )

	Load can now be used from within functions, and loops.
