@code{save-buffer} function unconditionally backs up the previous
version of the file before saving it.
@end itemize

@deffn Command save-some-buffers &optional save-silently-p exiting
This command saves some modified file-visiting buffers.  Normally it
asks the user about each buffer.  But if @var{save-silently-p} is
non-@code{nil}, it saves all the file-visiting buffers without querying
the user.

The optional @var{exiting} argument, if non-@code{nil}, requests this
function to offer also to save certain other buffers that are not
visiting files.  These are buffers that have a non-@code{nil}
buffer-local value of @code{buffer-offer-save}.  (A user who says @samp{yes} to
saving one of these is asked to specify a file name to use.)  The
@code{save-buffers-kill-emacs} function passes a non-@code{nil} value
for this argument.
@end deffn

@deffn Command write-file filename &optional confirm
This function writes the current buffer into file @var{filename}, makes
the buffer visit that file, and marks it not modified.  Then it renames

@deffn Command save-some-buffers &optional save-silently-p pred
This command saves some modified file-visiting buffers.  Normally it
asks the user about each buffer.  But if @var{save-silently-p} is
non-@code{nil}, it saves all the file-visiting buffers without querying
the user.

The optional @var{pred} argument controls which buffers to ask about.
If it is @code{nil}, that means to ask only about file-visiting buffers.
If it is @code{t}, that means also offer to save certain other non-file
buffers---those that have a non-@code{nil} buffer-local value of
@code{buffer-offer-save}.  (A user who says @samp{yes} to saving a
non-file buffer is asked to specify the file name to use.)  The
@code{save-buffers-kill-emacs} function passes the value @code{t} for
@var{pred}.

If @var{pred} is neither @code{t} nor @code{nil}, then it should be
a function of no arguments.  It will be called in each buffer to decide
whether to offer to save that buffer.  If it returns a non-@code{nil}
value in a certain buffer, that means do offer to save that buffer.
