@FILEWRITE[n,text]:  Writes a line to the file whose handle is n. Returns the number of characters written, or -1 if an error occurred. A CR/LF will be appended to text.

 

Numeric input may be entered in either decimal format (a sequence of 0-9 digits) or in hexadecimal format ("0x" followed by a sequence of 0-F hex digits).

 

This function should only be used with file handles returned by @FILEOPEN  If you use it with any other number you may damage other files opened by TCC-RT (or by the program which started TCC-RT).

 

Beware of characters with special meaning to TCC-RT, such as redirection and piping symbols, within the file. Use SETDOS /X with appropriate codes as needed.

 

Example:

 

set h=%@fileopen["d:\path\myfile.txt",w]

echo writing %@filewrite[%h,32]

echo closing handle #%h: %@fileclose[%h]
