To follow up on my previous question, suppose a user R session wants to 
unload one workspace and load another within an R session.  Is the 
following the correct sequence?

1.  save.image() to save the current workspace as .Rdata in the current 
working directory.
2.  rm(list=ls()) to remove everything from the workspace.
3.  setcwd("xxx") to set the new working directory.
4.  load(".Rdata") to load the new workspace.
