7.3.3 Saving Files

Saving a buffer runs several hooks. It also performs format conversion. These hooks are only run by save-buffer; they are not run by other primitives and functions that write buffer text to files. Auto-saving does not run these hooks.

• save-buffer
• save-some-buffers
• write-file
• set-visited-file-name
• not-modified
• write-file-functions—a hook
• write-contents-functions—a hook
• before-save-hook
• after-save-hook
