File input/output is part of Short Circuit's Console Program Basics selection.
Task

Create a file called   "output.txt",   and place in it the contents of the file   "input.txt",   via an intermediate variable.

In other words, your program will demonstrate:

   how to read from a file into a variable
   how to write a variable's contents into a file


Oneliners that skip the intermediate variable are of secondary interest — operating systems have copy commands for that.




program copyfile
	file open fin using `1', read text
	file open fout using `2', write text replace
 
	file read fin line
	while !r(eof) {
		file write fout `"`line'"' _newline
		file read fin line
	}
	file close fin
	file close fout
end
