Probably a couple ways. Here is how you can get a cell array of names of
variables in your workspace:

    v = whos;
    names = {v.name};

or the uglier shortcut

    names = {[whos].name};

From there you can iterate over the list of variable names and clear or
not clear each one.

You could also save the variables you like to a file, clear all, and
load the file back into your workspace.
