Actually you can use it with an absolute path (e.g., `Put
/usr/geoff/stuff.m'), but you're right, it doesn't do anything useful
with a relative path, to my slight surprise.  I guess I'd expected it
to work like Save, except that it would create a non-existent file
first, instead of complaining (which seems to be the difference if you
supply an absolute path).
