Not possible, as history states are dependent upon the levels of Undo you
have set to work with. If at the end of say, 100 Undo's a 100meg file will
often have a temporary scratch file of maybe 6-8 gigs in size. Therefore it
is impractical to 'Save' a history state.

What you can do is go backwards and forwards along the history time-line and
make snapshots or new documents of key elements in the file's workflow, for
saving to disk as resource material and file backup.

Hope this helps
