print on    --    print to an output stream


Syntax 
print  E: OBJECT  on  OUT: OSTREAM

Description
This command prints the value of expression E to the output stream OUT. Currently, the command can be used to print to files, strings, or the CoCoA window. In the first two cases, the appropriate device must be opened with OpenOFile or OpenOString .

Example 
/**/  file := OpenOFile("my-test");  -- open "my-test" for output from CoCoA
/**/  println "hello world" on file;   -- print string into "mytest"
/**/  close(file);  -- close the file
See OpenOFile for an example using output strings. For printing to the CoCoA window, just use println E.
