According patch 1/4 (function ctf_save), 'tsave -ctf foo' will save ctf
files into directory 'foo'. If so, we have to reflect this in document.

Can we do 'tsave -r -ctf foo'? IIRC, it is not allowed.

It can be written something like this,

@item tsave [ -r ] @var{filename}
@itemx tsave [-ctf] @var{dirname}

According to patch 3/4 (function init_ctf_ops), 'target ctf foo' uses
directory foo instead of file foo.
