saving views to files

[abegel@media.mit.edu (Andrew Begel)]

I have a program that needs to be able to save views from a window into an
either binary or text file in some format that would save all of the
information stored in the view. Has anyone come up with something like this? 
This is needed for different dialog items and views that contain subviews. 
(my own user-defined dialog types)

Thanks.
