Saving & loading UI/keybind settings?

What is the easiest way to save and load settings and key-binds? I was a little confused by the number of 'Save Options' buttons in the Options panel. There is a Save Options at the bottom of each tab - do they save for just that tab? What about the separate 'Save Options' buttons that are specifically in the Chat Settings and Windows Settings areas?

I want to set up a whole bunch of key-binds, chat options, and window options and then use that as my default for alts. I seem to keep screwing it up - over-righting what I want, somehow loading my Chat Options fine but reverting key-binds to the default, etc.

Thanks!

I do it via the slash commands:

/bind_save
/chat_save
/option_save
/wdw_save - saves the UI layout and open windows

/bind_load
/chat_load
/option_load
/wdw_load

Those commands will save the setups to a standard file and overwrite anything there. If you want to have different setups, you can append a filename to the command.

The options buttons at the bottom are the same/don't change with the tab.

It covers pretty much everything not covered by the chat, window, and bind commands.

To clarify, to save to a specific file, use the /bind_save_file {or chat, or load.. you get the idea}.
