You can in UD as well by simply creating a DIR type VOC item for the
directory the files are in. Then you can simply open the "DIR" and read
and write the files. Although extra care must be taken with "binary"
files.

OPENSEQ is great for importing/exporting text files. You can very easily
read or create *large* text files without worrying about putting the
entire record into memory.

Creating the DIR VOC entry also helps when moving the accounts around.
You can simply update the VOC item rather than change the programs and
re-compile.
