Re: storing to a file

Hello Feri, thanks for your advice, I guess it sweetens the situation, though I really would like to know how to store in a binary format. Have a nice day, Johan Am Don, 2002-11-14 um 11.15 schrieb Ferenc Wagner:

how to store a Double, or any non-char, to a file.

I can give you a general advice: store it in ASCII format via show, unless you have *VERY* strong reasons against it. Yes, it results in bigger files (but you can compress them), and slower (what compression makes even worse) but you gain easy view/edit and compatibility. I couple of years ago I was very fond of binary formats...
