They get saved in a file under $HOME/bin under an appropriate name,
with appropriate comments. Ideally, I turn them into a working
"command" I can then use as needed. (Occasionally they get turned
into shell aliases or functions, if the mood strikes me.)
Or I forget about them and have to re-invent the wheel next time. :)
