Maybe you just want to do
write %file word
Eric
Assuming that word is a string, try:
write %file word
if word a file:
write %file read %word
if word is a string holding a file name:
write %file read to-file word
Also, check the docs for 'read.
Hope this helps.

You might want to try the 'write word to save a string, such as concatenated files, to
a file as-is.
