function
IPython.core.magics.code:CodeMagics.save
Signature
def save ( self , parameter_s = '' ) Summary
Save a set of lines or a macro to a given filename.
Extended Summary
Usage:\
%save [options] filename [history]
Options:
-r: use 'raw' input. By default, the 'processed' history is used, so that magics are loaded in their transformed version to valid Python. If this option is given, the raw input as typed at the command line is used instead.
-f: force overwrite. If file exists, %save will prompt for overwrite unless -f is given.
-a: append to the file instead of overwriting it.
The history argument uses the same syntax as %history for input ranges, then saves the lines to the filename you specify.
If no ranges are specified, saves history of the current session up to this point.
It adds a '.py' extension to the file if you don't do so yourself, and it asks for confirmation before overwriting existing files.
If -r option is used, the default extension is .ipy.
