I still do not know how to do this correctly. But I have something that
seems to work for the moment.
Using #asUTF8Bytes
f nextPutAll: (writer write contents asUTF8Bytes).
Now the file is in UTF-8 and normal size.

Hello,
I am attempting to read and write an XML document.
Currently I have parsed the document successfully. I have basic
navigation and have learned how to modify the XMLDocument.
Now I want to write the modified document back to the file system.
What I have tried so far is:
writer := XMLWriter new.
xmldoc document writeXMLOn: writer.
writer stream.
f := File openForWriteFileNamed: '/home/jimmie/xmldoc.xml'.
f nextPutAll: (writer write contents).
f flush.
f close.
It does write an xml document to the file system. However, it has
exploded in size. The original is 28mb and is in UTF-8. The newly
written file is 112mb and is UTF-32.
I do not know why the change in encoding or how to correct or manually
set the encoding.
Any help in understanding how to correctly write an XML document that I
have read and minimally modified would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Jimmie
