Routines to read and write canvases to files:
canvas_savetofile() writes a root canvas to a "pd" file.  (Reading "pd" files
is done simply by passing the contents to the pd message interpreter.)
Alternatively, the  glist_read() and glist_write() routines read and write
"data" from and to files (reading reads into an existing canvas), using a
file format as in the dialog window for data.
