Re: [TCLUG-DEVEL:227] file stuff

My appologies that this is so late.

I didn't see an answer to this question so here is mine.

Creating a File object does not create the file.  You will need to call
the createNewFile() method on the File object that you created.

Alternately, I believe you could use the RandomAccessFile with mode
"rw" and that would create the file automatically.  It might also be
easier to use.
