[Processing] A reusable "save" command, with basic and advanced modes (copy and paste into new tab in Processing)

Save.pde

/*
 * Function for saving the generated image into a file when you press "S" or "B" key. 
 * Files will be saved to /out folder, with name: [Sketch name]_[Timestamp].jpg
 * 
 * It works in two ways:
 *    1. S key (BASIC) 
 *       If you press the S key ("Save"), it will save the contents of the screen. 
 *       The image is saved in the same resolution as your sketch size. In other words, 
 *       the image will have the same size as  "height" by "width" pixels.
 *        
 *    2. B key (ADVANCED)
         If you press the B key (for "Buffer"), it will save the contents of an offscreen 
 *       buffer (a PGraphics object). The image will have the size of the buffer, which
 *       you defined during `buffer = createGraphics(bufferWidth,bufferHeight).` 
 *       
 *       For B command, the code looks for a PGraphics variable called "buffer" (which
 *       is the "standard" I use); if it cannot find "buffer", it looks for the first variable
 *       of type PGraphics, regardless of name.  This overengineered way is meant not to break
 *       the sketch if there is no "buffer" variable - likely there are simpler ways to achieve 
 *       the same.
 *
