Description for class <b>File</b>:
<blockquote>

		A File is an object used for creating textual output of your breve  simulation, or for reading in data from text files.   <p> Though some File methods can be used to encode or decode simulation objects, it is not the preferred method for archiving and dearchiving  objects--for a discussion of archiving and dearchiving objects, see the  <a href="http://www.spiderland.org/breve/docs/docs/archiving.html">Archiving and Dearchiving section</a> of the breve documentation.
