How to use the FileIO Xtra

This sample movie is a basic implementation of the file-IO xtra. The movie uses the creating, appending, clearing and saving capabilities of the file-IO xtra. The file-IO xtra creates a text file named "info.txt" that contains the information generated from the sample movie. The "info.txt" is created in the same directory as the fileIO.dir sample movie.
