==Definition==
'''INT''' save ( <'''STRING''' filename> , <'''VARSPACE''' data> )

Saves the data from any variable to the specified file.

== Parameters ==
{|
| '''STRING''' filename || - The name of the file that will be saved.
|-
| '''VARSPACE''' data || - The variable (of any [[datatype]]) that will be saved in a file.
|}

== Returns ==
'''INT''' : The number of bytes written to the file.

== Notes ==
Attempting to use "?","*","<",">" or "|" in a filename will result in no file at all on Windows, while using ":" in a filename results in everything from the ":" and beyond being cut off from the file name and the resulting file will be of size 0.

Using the characters "/" or "\" in the filename (without directories that can be accesssed that way) results in everything from this character and before being cut off from the filename. The file will be saved successfully nontheless.

== Example ==
<pre>
Program test;
Global
struct My_struct
Level_number="99";
string Map_name="Amazing map";
End
Begin
Save("myfile.sav",My_struct); // The content of My_struct is saved in myfile.sav
Write(0,10,10,0,"Data saved!");

While (!key(_esc))
Frame;
End
End
</pre>
Used in example: [[write]](), [[key]]()
