I meant the javadoc for the method.  It doesn't mention append. All it says is 
"If the file does not exist, this method creates it, and the parent folder, if 
necessary. If the file does exist, it is replaced with whatever is written to 
the output stream." However, the append parameter does mention appending. So 
your comment that it is working as documented applies to the method portion but 
not to the specific parameter.
