Transfering Variables to a New Map

I've written some modular trigger routines which I'd like to use in most of my maps, so I'm creating a Map Template as a starting point. I can Copy & Paste triggers between maps easily, but I can't figure out a method for copying the variables, and the editor doesn't allow the Importing of a script.

Is there a script utility that allows you to "copy" variables between maps?

Thanks in advance for the help!
:D

I am almost 100% positive there is not. Sadly it is just one of the many restrictions the World Editor has.

There are files inside the .w3m file that house the variables, if you coppy those, you will get the variables in your other map. Problem is this:

I think the file is war3map.j, in which case you lose all your current triggers, unless you copy and paste and don't overwrite anything.

I remember hearing there was another file too, can't remember which one though. Best to just recreate them all.
