I think he is asking for a file that saves the state of the program: all variables, sprite locations, directions, costumes, graphics effects, ... . The erasable board for the pen and stamp effects should probably also be saved.
A file saving the complete state like this is commonly called a "sanpshot".
You may also want to look up the concept of "persistent objects" which would be a more flexible (and possibly more complicated) way to have a similar effect.

ok, i get it now, so you could "save" it and resume later, right?
