The following folderIdentifier values are supported:

placed (typically not valuable)
        • "temporary": Same as "cache"
        • "engine": The (virtual) folder containing the application's LiveCode 
engine and other resources that were copied into the application at build time
        • "resources": Same as "engine".
        • "external documents": The folder on the primary shared/external 
storage device where application-specific data can be placed
        • "external cache": The folder on the primary shared/external storage 
device where transient application-specific data can be placed
        • "external temporary": same as "external cache"

Note: If using any external folderIdentifier values, ensure you have the 'Write 
External Storage' permission checked in the application standalone settings

The above implies that access to the internal filing system is read-only, even for the 
"documents" special folder and that the only filing system that I can write to 
is the external one on the SD card.  Is this correct?

Actually, only the engine folder is read-only. All the others are read/write and you should be able to save files to those. It would be helpful if you could post an example of a file path that fails.
