Saving with saveStrings to different filetype problem...

in General Discussion • Other • 1 year ago

I'm trying to use saveStrings to save a file with a different extension than ".txt".

I'm not getting any errors, it just freezes. I'm aware that each file is UFT-8 encoded, could this be the reason for the crash somehow?

As far as I know there are no specific extension requirements with saveStrings.

See: Examples > Topics > File IO > SaveFile1

Try changing the extension to see if it works with another extension on your system. It does on mine.

It probably freezes from an unrelated reason. Just try in a simpler sketch, as amnon.owed advised. If it works, you should see elsewhere. If your original sketch doesn't freeze when using a .txt extension, I would be curious to see the code...
