| Sure.

| But making

load ("file", "option-1", "option-2");
is entirely equivalent to
load file option-1 option-2
and works for all functions that can be invoked this way (i.e., ls,
type, who, and so on).

Because I would think that it means load only the variables named v1,
v2, etc. from the file?

Probably you should pay attention to such warnings. I haven't checked
your code, but discarding const is probably not what you really want
to do.
