If a file does not exist, one is created. While output is being redirected, the text file cannot be edited, renamed, deleted, or uploaded.

	if it does not already exist.The filename is in the format
	[device:]filename.txt and can be:
	• uppercase and lowercase letters
	•	digits

	issued. Commandstring is the command syntax enclosed in quotes.

	The script is treated as a simple list of commands. Flow control
