File_I/O Commands

[Rodgers Hemer]

I would be most appreciative if someone would provide me a real world example of the File I/O open and write commands.  I have tried to follow the help pages for these commands but they are confusing with their repetitive use of "aa=" and none of my efforts pass the syntax check.

I want to create/open a file to which a single line consisting of a full path name of another file is written.  For example, create/open a new file named xxx in /u/appl/tmp/.  Then write the full path name of another file in the new file.

All help will be much appreciated.

Thanks
