This script gives a little control to create and modifiy text files to eventers.
You can create a file, erase it, append text, add or remove a specific line.
Also you can configure the files extensions and paths.
You can ask for bugs, suggerences, compatibilitzations and any other things.
You can get the code in this simple web. Im going to use it on now because it saves alot of time updating posts and other things.

-------INTRODUCTION-----------
This script gives a little control to create and modifiy text files to eventers.
You can create a file, erase it, append text, add or remove a specific line.
Also you can configure the files extensions and paths.
----------INSTRUCTIONS----------------
1. First of all you have to create the text file. You do this with the
script command newTxt. That will create a new text file called at your will.
2. Then you can erase it using delTxt or modify it and continue to append contents
using appTxt, that add new text after the existent one.
You can also check for the rest of the functions to do other things:
newTxt(name, text). This command create a new text file named 'name' and adds
the text 'text.
delTxt(name). This deletes the text file of the specified name.
newTxt("test", "Initial text") --> Creates a test.txt file with Initial text inside.
delTxt("test") --> Erases it
appTxt(name, text). Appends at the end of the file a new text. If you make
a newTxt over a file that already exist it will be overwritten.
With the file called "test":
"start of file and line 1
line 2
line3
end of file and line 4
"
If you do a appTxt("test", "Append \n me \n)) it will result in:
"start of file and line 1
line 2
line3
end of file and line 4
Append
me
"
addLine(name, text, line). Insert a line of text in the specified position of
the file. A line means a piece of text thats beyond two \n (or the end of start
of the file). The insert moves all the lines after the one you are pushing, so:
With the file called "test":
"start of file and line 1
line 2
line3
end of file and line 4
"
If you do a addLine("test", "test line \n", 2) it will be inserted where the
actual line 2 is, so it will result in:
"start of file and line 1
test line
line 2
line3
end of file and line 4
"
delLines(name, lines). Deletes a list of lines from the file named 'name'.
Works in a similar way that the add line but deleting them. It also
accepts more lines to erase:
With the file called "test":
"start of file and line 1
line 2
line3
end of file and line 4
"
If you do a delLine("test", [2,4]) it will result in:
"start of file and line 1
line3
"
-------SPECIAL CARACTERS------------
You can add new lines marks and tabulations marks using these codes:
\t (tab)
\n (newline)
This works internally for the system, but the reader doesent see ethese symbols
but their true meaning. So if you write:
text = " testing \n \ttabulating it"
It will read as:
testing
tabulating it
------CONFIGURATION-------------
Texts_file_path: Ifor you put this to empty "", it wont create a folder.
Also you have to add the \\ at the end of the folder name.
Texts_file_extension: You can changue the extension of all the text files.
