FileOut

Function
This allows you to write image to either a disk or another external device. It recognizes local, absolute, or URL paths. To do a URL address, you place a // in front of the path. For example, to write to an Accom, you type //accom1/# as your file path. To write to another computer, you would write //Biggo/Drive/Directory/etc. For the command line, each FileOut is explicitly accompanied by a -fo (or -fileout). You can add multiple FileOuts along your command string to output different steps of the command.

For more on the syntax of the file name, see FileIn.
