Personally I would use the budapi xtra...say you want to store the text file
on the desktop 

buddy = new(xtra "budapi")
 -- say you want the text file on the desktop
 tDesktop = baSysFolder("desktop")
 -- now you've got the desktop folder regardless of platform/drives
 you can use the fileio now to create the file at tDesktop &
"yourfilename.txt"


But with the crossplatform thing, best thing is:

 tFileChar = the last char of the moviepath -- ":" for mac, "\" for win
