	<brief_description>
		Saves a specific resource type to a file.
	</brief_description>
	<description>
		The engine can save resources when you do it from the editor, or when you call [method ResourceSaver.save]. This is accomplished with multiple [code]ResourceFormatSaver[/code]s, each handling its own format.
		By default, Godot saves resources as [code].tres[/code], [code].res[/code] or another built-in format, but you can choose to create your own format by extending this class. You should give it a global class name with [code]class_name[/code] for it to be registered. You may as well implement a [ResourceFormatLoader].
