 Description:
 ------------
 Sends the contents of the string input port to an output file,
 openned with a file browser.
 The string can replace the current contents of the file,
 or be appended to the file since openned during the session,
 as a log of strings in the network, controlled by a mode toggle.
 This is designed to be used to send command strings via a
 named pipe (see mknod pipe.file p) to another application program, where
 command input has been redirected to the same pipe.
 This allows an AVS user interface modules to control an external
 command-line driven application.
