+.SH NAME
+optionSaveFile - saves the option state to a file
+.sp 1
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+#include <\fIyour-opts.h\fP>
+.br
+cc [...] -o outfile infile.c -l\fBopts\fP [...]
+.sp 1
+void \fBoptionSaveFile\fP(tOptions* \fIpOpts\fP);
+.sp 1
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This routine will save the state of option processing to a file. The name
+of that file can be specified with the argument to the \fB--save-opts\fP
+option, or by appending the \fBrcfile\fP attribute to the last
+\fBhomerc\fP attribute. If no \fBrcfile\fP attribute was specified, it
+will default to \fB.\fIprogramname\fPrc\fP. If you wish to specify another
+file, you should invoke the \fBSET_OPT_SAVE_OPTS(\fIfilename\fP)\fP macro.
+
+The recommend usage is as follows:
+.nf
+ optionProcess(&progOptions, argc, argv);
+ if (i_want_a_non_standard_place_for_this)
+ SET_OPT_SAVE_OPTS("myfilename");
+ optionSaveFile(&progOptions);
+.fi
+.TP
+.IR pOpts
+program options descriptor
+.sp 1
+.SH ERRORS
+If no \fBhomerc\fP file was specified, this routine will silently return
+and do nothing. If the output file cannot be created or updated, a message
+will be printed to \fBstderr\fP and the routine will return.
+.SH SEE ALSO
