(quote <<,String,Thing)

"name" << x -- prints the expression x on the output file named "name".

Returns the newly created File associated to the given name. Parsing associates leftward, so that several expressions may be displayed with something like "name"<<x<<y<<z. It will often be convenient to let the last output operation close the file, as illustrated below.

i1 : "foo" << 2^30 << endl << close

o1 = --closed file--

o1 : File
i2 : get "foo"

o2 = 1073741824


o2 : String
