;; use the stream here

As lisp is capable of being run on many different platforms and no assumptions should be made about the filesystem there are functions to construct paths in a platform independent manner

(make-pathname :directory '(:absolute "docs")))))

So creating a file called ''output.txt'' with an absolute path in the root directory becomes:

(stream

(make-pathname :directory '(:absolute "") :name "output.txt")

 

On the other hand, if you may depend on the platform's pathname syntax then shorter notation may be used:

mkdir(f := dir || "docs") |stop("failure for mkdir ",f)

The conjunction <tt>!:</tt> with a scalar <tt>1</tt> to the left (<tt>1!:</tt>) provides the underlying cross-platform support for [http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/dx001.htm working with files].

 

 

However a number of libraries provide a more convenient/conventional interface to that underlying functionality.

NB. create two empty files named /output.txt and output.txt

'' fwrite '/output.txt' ; 'output.txt'

require 'general/dirutils' NB. addon package

NB. create two directories: /docs and docs:

 

Finally note that writing a file in J creates that file. In typical use, files are referred to by name, and the entire contents of the file are written. (Appends and partial writes are also supported but they are more complicated than the typical case.)
