I'm afraid I don't understand what's going on here. The following
code snippet compiles, runs, and produces the single line file
expected.
filetst.nrx:
output = BufferedWriter(FileWriter(File('filetst.out')))
line='Line of text'
output.write(line,0,12)
--output.write(line)
output.close()
Removing the dashes, however, produces the following error:
[N:\nrx\jnrw\7_fileio]nrc -run filetst

According to my JiaN, BufferedWriter doesn't have a 'write(String s)'
method, but its immediate superclass Writer, which is abstract, has a
public void write(String str) throws IOException
instance method. Since BufferedWriter doesn't override that method,
I assumed that I would be able to use it, but apparently not. Laura
Lemay, in TYJava1.1in24Days seems to think I should, too.
What don't we understand, here?
