Hello fang-castro!

Var
  fptr : File
Begin
  fAssign(fptr,'welcome.txt)
  fReWrite(fptr)           //will recreate the file each time it's run
  WriteLn(fptr,'fang-castro is so lazy')
  fClose(fptr)
End

If you have an existing file you'd like to edit, you could use reset(fptr) which will just open that file. You could also use append(fptr), which would append the line to the end of the current file.

Hope this helps. :)
