      Note a separate file is used for each session of IDL.
      SETFILE=file Sets save file and then returns. Useful
        to set your own default save file name in your
        IDL startup file.
      Note: You may set the number of lines in the recall buffer
      by setting !EDIT_INPUT=n in your IDL startup file. n is
      20 by default but may be set to a large value (like 1000).
