FileSaveDialog ("Save...", @DesktopDir, "Text (*.txt)")

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

This command doesn't save a file, but prompts for a file name and returns that.

So for example:

$filename = FileSaveDialog ("Save...", @DesktopDir, "Text (*.txt)")
If @error Then
    MsgBox(4096,"","Save cancelled.")
    Exit
Else
    FileWrite($filename,"text to save")
    MsgBox(4096,"","You chose " & $var)
EndIf
