# The pair of commands
#
# dput(object, "file.dput")
# object = dget("file.dput")
#
# should be a no op, but this is not working correctly for all objects.
#
# Simple example:
#
# make a simple object of class "hclust"
cl = hclust(dist(matrix(nrow=4,ncol=4, c(1:16))))
# save it to a file using dput
dput(cl, "cl.dput")
# the following two commands should give identical results, but they dont
str(cl)
str(dget("cl.dput"))
# plot also fails to interpret the labels on the restore object correctly
par(mfrow=c(2,1))
plot(cl)
plot(dget("cl.dput"))
