### ACL2-PC::SAVE

(macro) `` save the proof-checker state (state-stack)

    Major Section:  PROOF-CHECKER-COMMANDS

    Example:
    (save lemma3-attempt)

    General Form:
    (save &optional name do-it-flg)

Saves the current proof-checker state by ``associating'' it with the given name. Submit `(retrieve name)` to Lisp to get back to this proof-checker state. If `verify` was originally supplied with an event name, then the argument can be omitted in favor of that name as the default.

Remark that if a `save` has already been done with the indicated name (or the default event name), then the user will be queried regarding whether to go ahead with the save -- except, if `do-it-flg` is supplied and not `nil`, then there will be no query and the `save` will be effected.

See also the documentation for `retrieve` and `unsave`.
