|
|

|
||
|

This function can be used to either write data to a port, a text file (.txt), or a script (.script, .js, .ns)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the first argument is a number between 1 and 20, then it specifies a port and this function will write *data* to that port. Read
|
||
|
|
about how :ref:`netscript_ports` work here. The third argument, *mode*, is not used
|
||
|
|
when writing to a port.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the first argument is a string, then it specifies the name of a text file or script and this function will write *data* to that text file/script. If the
|
||
|
|
specified text file/script does not exist, then it will be created. The third argument *mode*, defines how the data will be written. If *mode*
|
||
|
|
is set to "w", then the data is written in "write" mode which means that it will overwrite all existing data on the text file/script. If *mode* is set to
|
||
|
|
any other value then the data will be written in "append" mode which means that the data will be added at the end of the file.
