saving all buffers at a time

[Rodrigo Canellas]

Hi,

I could not find a command to save all the buffers at once... could 
anyone tell me how to do it?


Thanks a lot!

Or C-u C-x s to save lots of `y-or-n-p' queries.

One easy way to save all unsaved buffers is this:

type Alt+x ibuffer, then type “* u” to mark all unsaved buffer, then
type “S” to save them all. Type “D” to close them all if you want.

I have wrote a little tutorial on ibuffer here if you are curious:

Or press ! at the prompt to save all remaining files.
(At least on xemacs)
