#### Description [src]

    final class GtkSource.FileSaver : GObject.Object

A `GtkSourceFileSaver` object permits to save a `GtkSourceBuffer` into a `GFile`.

A file saver should be used only for one save operation, including errors handling. If an error occurs, you can reconfigure the saver and relaunch the operation with `gtk_source_file_saver_save_async()`.
