# CREATE()

Syntax:

Then: handle = handle = CREATE(filename [,mode] )

"handle" is the file handle.
"filename" is the name of the file to create.
"mode" represents the permissions give the file that gets created. For convenience, if the number starts with a zero, the rest of the number is treated as octal. The binary value corresponds to the 9 bits in the Linux directory listing "rwxrwxrwx". Note that Windows systems only use the top two bits of the value. The rest are ignored.

NOTE: For compatibility purposes with Unix systems, you may also specify the name of this command as CREAT e.g. CREAT(filename).
