Name

saveStream()

Description Save the contents of a stream to a file in the sketch folder. This is basically saveBytes(blah, loadBytes()), but done more efficiently (and with less confusing syntax).

When using the targetFile parameter, it writes to a File object for greater control over the file location. (Note that unlike other api methods, this will not automatically compress or uncompress gzip files.)
Syntax
saveStream(targetFilename, sourceLocation)
saveStream(targetFile, sourceLocation)
Parameters
targetFilename String: name of the file to write to
sourceLocation String: location to save the file
targetFile File: the file to write to
Returns None
Usage Application
