description: Saves a group of raw tiddlers to a directory

(Note: The `--savetiddlers` command is deprecated in favour of the new, more flexible `--save` command)

Saves a group of tiddlers in their raw text or binary format to the specified directory.

```
--savetiddlers <filter> <pathname> ["noclean"]
```

By default, the pathname is resolved relative to the `output` subdirectory of the edition directory. The `--output` command can be used to direct output to a different directory.

The output directory is cleared of existing files before saving the specified files. The deletion can be disabled by specifying the ''noclean'' flag.

Any missing directories in the pathname are automatically created.
