Ah, you mean ^X^S followed by ^X^C.

  ^X ^S                         save_buffer
  ^X ^C                         exit_jed

actually,  ^X S might be better, to save non-active buffers as well

  ^X S                         save_some_buffers 

however, it does ask for every buffer. You could use the function

                        save_buffers

instead.

Good choice (well actually only with my enhanced cua.sl to appear soon on
the jed modes repository. :-). 

How about binding the functions to a key of your choice? E.g. your .jedrc
insert

  setkey("save_buffers; exit_jed", "^Q");

to make the usual cua exit key Ctrl-Q saving all changed buffers and exit
without any hassle.

Beware: you might overwrite files with unwanted changes this way without
        notice (consider the case you accidentially inserted a letter in a
        program source without noticing and later switching to another
        buffer)
 
        A one-hit key-combi might be "dangerous" for such an important act,
        as it could be hit by accident as well.

The save option would be

  setkey("exit_jed", "^Q");
 
to get the chance to respond to all save-attempts with y or n or to abort
the whole process.
