  | ### 5.1.47 getdump `Syntax:` `getdump (` link_expression `)` `Type:` none `Purpose:` reads the content of the entire file, resp. link, and restores all variables from it. For ASCII links, `getdump` is equivalent to an `execute(read(` link `))` command. For ssi links, `getdump` should only be used on data which were previously `dump``ed. `Example:`
        int i=3;
        dump(":w example.txt");
        kill i;
        option(noredefine);
        getdump("example.txt");
