[Newbie] writing plain text to a file

Hi all,

I've been programming Cocoa for a couple months now, but getting really into it the last 2 or 3 weeks. I've got this program which generates a random number in a specified interval, and writes that number, and the next 100 or so numbers above it. It needs to write all these numbers to a file, each on its own line. What I do now is create an NSMutableArray to hold all the numbers, and then [numArray writeToFile: numFileLocation atomically:YES]. This works... it creates the file and the data is in there, but I (and my users!) would rather have just a plain text file with one number on each line instead of this XML file.
I did some research and found a lot of stuff about NSFileHandle, NSFileManager and NSData but I couldn't figure out the best way to do this. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!
