3 Function: The old command retrieves a file that has previously been
4 saved either in the user's home directory or another directory to which
5 the user has access. If the retrieval is successful, the saved file
6 replaces the current file and the alter file is cleared. If the saved
7 file's name includes a language component, the system is changed to
8 that language. Otherwise, the message "enter system:" is printed and
9 the user can type basic, dbasic, or fortran.
