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
