I think this is a simple one. But I can't figure out how.
I have to write a diferent content to an
existing text file, and right now, what happens
is that when the new content is shorter than the
previous content, the tail of the old text
remains in the file.
How do I "empty" the content of a text file before writing the new content?
Thanks!

uhhhhh writing to file......
i sure wish there were some basic scripts
awailable that worked for sure and then I could
build on them
write to file has always been a big problem for me :-((
but I might think that the problem you have is
because you dont use the 100 % correct definition
of 'all text in document'
fx. in apple works its text body
--text body text [r/o] -- the document¹s text (if text document)
--text as a range of elements
hope this helps you narrow it down
