To clarify what Stephen wrote there a bit, you should probably want to only use `display` here. To a first approximation, `write` is used for writing out values that you can read back in with `read`. (This doesn't work in general and you actually want to make things marshlable if that is your goal, but that's the general idea anyway.)
`display` on the other hand, is used for writing out arbitrary text to `current-output-port`. For this reason, I tend to like `printf` and `format` more than `display`. ~Leif Andersen On Wed, Mar 2, 2016 at 1:15 PM, Stephen Chang <stch...@ccs.neu.edu> wrote: > Use display? or set read-accept-bar-quote to #f > > On Wed, Mar 2, 2016 at 1:12 PM, Marco Morazan <moraz...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hi All, >> >> I seem to recall I knew how to do this once, but can't recall the details. >> >> How do we write a blank to a text file without the parallel bars appearing? >> >> So, (write '| | outfile) produces | | in the file.
