Re: Append an String to an file

Use the pseudo-ANS file function APPEND-FILE to open
the existing file, then use WRITE-FILE to add your text
to it, then use CLOSE-FILE to finish.

S" C:\USER\APPENDTEST.FTH" APPEND-FILE THROW ( fid)
( fid) DUP S" TEST FOR STRING APPEND TO AN FILLE" ROT WRITE-FILE THROW
( fid) CLOSE-FILE THROW
