Exec.ToFile

Description

• Writes a single line of text to a log file, including a line break at the end.

Syntax

• Exec.ToFile(fpath, text)

Parameters

fpath

(string) path to the target file

Possible Values

a file path

 

"log"

The currently open log file, as specified by an Exec.LogKeys() call.

text

(string) the text to write to the file

Examples

• Exec.ToFile(?"c:\web\out.txt", "some text to write")
• Exec.ToFile(?"c:\web\out.txt", date++":"++time)

Notes

• Be aware that Exec.ToFile() will only write a single line of text -- and that means no line breaks within that string, either. (That will draw errors, too, if the string begins with a line break.)
