Re: open file tFile for text ?

2014-08-19 Thread Mark Schonewille 

Thierry,

Apparently, this is new. Older versions of LiveCode don't have this (or 
that part of the text doesn't render). Also, I was looking at the open 
file command at first. So, it really helped that you pointed exactly at 
the right part of the right entry.


Yes, I would say that the example in the dictionary is wrong. It should be

open file tFile for text write

or

open file tFile for binary write

but it is sufficient to use

open file tFile for write

or

open file tFile

Come on, see my 1st post.

Check the code sample in "write to file" in the Dictionary.

Best,

Where exactly, Thierry? If you don't tell me exactly where you have 
found this, I won't find it myself.

Hi Thierry,

If you use the binary or text clause, you also need to use one of the 
parameters update, read, write or append, for example


open file myFile for text write
open file myFile for binary append
