I don't see that where they came from has any bearing on the question.
If you have locals accessible in your session, you can save them
(although not -save- them directly).

Umm the local macros are created on the way to using / saving a data
set, so I can't just define them on my own, hence the need to save
them. They are cooked along the way.
As Maarten said I can use " notes " but I dunno how to recover them
from notes.
