If not, no biggy, I'll just make another method to output all the lines (in my NSArray, which I sent the componentsJoinedByString: message to get the NSString whose output I want to go to stdout), but it just adds unneeded complexity that I'd rather avoid. TIA!

I think what you’re saying is you want a single code-path for writing to a file and writing to stdout?

One way to do that is to use the pseudo-file /dev/stdout — anything written to that ‘file’ actually goes to stdout. But make sure not to use the ‘atomically’ option or NSString will actually write to a temp file and then try to move that file to /dev/stdout, which of course won’t work.
