- A function that provides the Alice directory
- Some other features.
Cool! What file structure does Linux have? Windows is C:\folder\folder and Mac is /folder/folder. I am wondering because I have a Windows version and a Mac version of my flight simulator, but will one of the versions work on Linux, too?

This is on hold because I'm wanting Addons out ASAP, then I can work on this again.

When using the IO Tool you can make it save to the Alice directory by setting the save path without a directory (ie "savedata.dat" only, without directory). But, I'm sorry - I am quite busy with Addons etc.

Can you write new .txt files with it?
I know...I said already that it looks interesting, but at the same time, what's it for?

Whoa, awesome! I didn't know about that! That should make the world work on any computer very easily. Thanks!

It lets you save things from your world (like settings, what level you were on, achievements). You write text to a text file. Then, when the world runs, it loads from the text file and using if statements, you can have the world set variables to "restore its progress." So, it basically lets you save while the Alice world is running, which is AWESOME.

I am envious that I am not smart enough to figure out how to do that! That is awesome!
