(DEFAULTF 'filename) will set up the file defaults for LOAD and OPEN.
However, LOAD and OPEN are considered primitives now, only
ONE person in a evironment can be fooling with DEFAULTF of course,
so it can lead to problems in shared programs. Global side
effects of that nature are not now considered a good way to
save typing of filenames. (Ah, but you should see some of the new
features.)
