int width = 200;
int height = 200;
rgb8_image_t img(width,height);
unsigned char* buffer = interleaved_view_get_raw_data(view(img));

FILE* fd = fopen(path,"wb");
fprintf(fd, "P6\n# CREATOR: unknown\n%d %d\n255\n",width,height);
fwrite(buffer,1,width*height*3,fd);
fclose(fd);

GIL is just a wrapper around your buffer.  No direct serialization
support is provided nor needed.
