puts(TCL)


puts -- write to a file

Syntax

puts [-nonewline] [fileId] string

Description

Writes the characters given by string to the file given by fileId. fileId must be the return value from a previous call to open, or it may be stdout or stderr to refer to one of the standard I/O channels; it must refer to a file that was opened for writing. If no fileId is specified then it defaults to stdout. puts normally outputs a newline character after string, but this feature may be suppressed by specifying the -nonewline switch. Output to files is buffered internally by Tcl; the flush command may be used to force buffered characters to be output.
