SaveConsole

a tool for managing .asCompileString based archiving of objects.

does a no-clobber check, makes a .bak copy of any previously existing file it finds. saves inside a TaskIfPlaying, so you don't have to stop play.

SaveConsole(object,path)

object:

anything that can meaningfully respond to .asCompileString

path:

if the object you are supplying was already loaded from disk and has a known path,

tell the SaveConsole of this. (makes a difference for save/save as behavior)

(

SaveConsole(

Array.rand(16,10,200),

nil, // no previous path

nil) //no layout

.print // prints object 

.save

.saveAs

)
