ascii file

[Jean Pierre Arabonis]

Hi
    fwrite will produce a binary file, you need to write a script,
somthing like the following for ascii, using the write command:

function main(args)
i = 1
while i <= 249
'set t ' i
'd htsgwsfc'
Val=subwrd(result,4)
write (Valuedir.txt,Val, append)
i = i + 1
endwhile


Good Luck
    Jean Pierre
