sudo apt-get install monodevelop

Windows Forms

Saving a File

SaveFileDialog saveFileDialog = new SaveFileDialog();

saveFileDialog.Filter = "csv File|*.csv";
saveFileDialog.Title = "Save";
saveFileDialog.FileName = this.Text;
            
if (saveFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) {
    try {
        using (var fs = new FileStream(saveFileDialog.FileName, FileMode.Create)) {
            // get bytes from text you want to save
            byte[] data = new UTF8Encoding().GetBytes("data1, data2, data3\ndata1, data2, data3");

            fs.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
            fs.Flush();
        }
    } catch {
        MessageBox.Show("Error saving file");
    }
}
