Saving a buffer without a message (as if there's a person watching) would be useful to me. 
I can't figure out how to do it.

All of (save-buffer), (basic-save-buffer), (basic-save-buffer-1), (basic-save-buffer-2), 
(write-file) and (write-region) display messages. 
I've been down in the code to DEFUN ("write-region",....), and even it wants to engage a person.

Someone somewhere must have wanted a simple, small write(2) kind of function.
Can anyone help me?

The package shut-up contains a variant shut-up-write-region, does that
work?
