Examples

#import "std/containers"
#import "std/fs"
using fs, containers

'' Everything below happens inside a temp directory of its own, and is
'' removed at the end
dim td as FsResultUStr = CreateTempDir( "fbdoc" )
dim as ustring dir_ = td.Value( )

dim as ustring p = PathJoin( dir_, "f.bin" )

dim buf as Array( of uint8 )
buf.Push( 65 ) : buf.Push( 66 )

print WriteAllBytes( p, buf ).IsOk( )    '' true
print ReadAllText( p ).Value( )          '' AB

'' Truncates like WriteAllText, and writes exactly the bytes given --
'' no encoding step, no line-ending translation
