One of the things that would make the use of objects a lot more interesting
(according to me) would be the possibility to save them in files and to read
them in later. Just adding two routines in the Graphical Library to load and
save objects would mean that you only have to define your objects once. This
would normally reduce the size of your programs (when they use basic objects)
considerably. You could make a simple library of all the objects you need.
