Saving text to a *.txt file (Found Python Solution)

I just finished creating a GUI dialogue creator for my game which exports the text I input into edit boxes into the appropriate format readable by my game (e.g "NPC"=['dialogue1','dialogue2'] ).

Right now I can simply copy and paste it into the text file, but I was wondering if there was any way to paste the output of an 'edit box' to the end of a *.txt document. I've tried INI and TextManipulator, and it worked with INI. But the problem is, it does not work with multiline edit boxes.

A small example of what I want.

Output generated:

NPC =

"Hello I'm awesome"

"And so are you!"

Click 'Save'

Updated Text File:

Player = 
"Bla"
"Blabla bla... bla"

Char =
"Melbourne >> Sydney"

NPC = 
"Hello I'm awesome"
"And so are you!"

Something that does that! I'm thinking it's possible with Python and I'm currently researching into it, but I want to know if it's possible without.

Thanks in advance!

Wow, found a Python solution which is so damn simple. I was hoping for an event sheet solution because I thought it'd be too complicated in Python but all you need is...

x = open('dialogue.txt', 'a')
x.write("\n")
x.write(Name.Text + " :\n\n" )
x.write('"' + Dial.Text + '"' + "\n")
x.close()[/code:wifmxk2a]

A bit of testing, this is the result:

[code:wifmxk2a]
Shady :

"I love Python!"

Homer :

"Don't you hate pants?"

Joe :

"I'm a plumber!"

Supports.... :

"Multiline!
Right? 
...

Guess so :)"

Was going to delete the thread, but I guess it's better to have this as reference for anyone in the future wanting to do something similar.

Python, my new found love

This is also doable with events:

req 0.99.84

+ Button: On Button clicked
  + File: File "dialog.txt" exists
  -> EditBox: Load file "dialog.txt"
  + System: Always (every tick)
  -> EditBox: Append text NewLine
  -> EditBox: Append text Name.Text & " :"&NewLine&NewLine
  -> EditBox: Append text """"&Dial.Text&""""&NewLine
  -> EditBox: Save file "dialog.txt"[/code:2lq13ftb]

That's good to know

Though I think I'll stick with the Python solution since it's very simple! I should really try to use more of Python in construct, since i did recently start learning it in University. Will be a good way to put my skills to the test.

Thanks R0J0hound!
