SYNOPSIS
use SelectSaver;
{

DESCRIPTION
A "SelectSaver" object contains a reference to the file
handle that was selected when it was created. If its
"new" method gets an extra parameter, then that parameter
is selected; otherwise, the selected file handle remains
unchanged.
When a "SelectSaver" is destroyed, it re-selects the file
handle that was selected when it was created.
