save formatted text in a file

[martin meili]

Hi
How can I avoid loosing the formatting of a text, if I save this text to a file?

I usually save text in a file as follows:

open file the_path_Var for write
write TextVar to file the_path_Var  ---TextVar contains the formatted text of a textfield; in the clipboard it can be seen as formatted text
close file the_path_Var

Thanks for any replies!

Cheers
Martin
