SYNOPSIS

save  (currently there are no options)

DESCRIPTION

Triggers the download of the current view frame in GIF (Graphics Interchange Format). The various browsers handle this somewhat differently, but you will probably be prompted for a location to save the file on your hard drive. If not, the image may appear in a new browser window, in which case you can probably drag the image to the desktop to create a file. Note that there are several actions encompassed by the save process, each of which takes time:

1. capturing the present image as an array of bytes
2. sending those bytes to the server
3. creating a file in the GIF format
4. sending that image back to the user

EXAMPLE
