"copy <filename> start" and then reload is a much better way to revert than trying to paste from notepad. But, you are right, seeing a bunch of files scattered about the flash is probably not something the graders would look kindly upon.

I would save to text files on the desktop instead. For both my trips to the lab I used notepad a ton but didn't end up saving any text files.

Having been to the lab once I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to do this, but I think that you'd almost certainly want to go around afterwards and clean up all your stray saved configs in much the same way you should remove any alias you may have used. If one was so inclined you could even used the Archive feature to set this up so every time you did a wr mem it saved a separate version...
