There is no concept of "files" in Ur/Web, and your life will be easier as an Ur/Web programmer if you stick within the endorsed model where all persistent state is in either the SQL database or cookies.

I believe your idea of the appropriate first "hello world" program is misguided in roughly the same way as a C programmer deciding that he needs to print "hello world" to the console as his first Haskell program, despite the fact that monadic IO makes that task more complex than expected, and despite the fact that IO and other side effects are not core concepts in Haskell.

Hi, when I visited the introductory web page the language looked like Standard ML and so I got curious and wanted to experiment with the language. I was thinking of doing some experiment where I read some file, do some processing, and then output the results. I think for this I would have to link up to C. This would also allow me to benchmark against Haskell.
