Matthew --
Looking at the code, it seems like this should work. The extension
calls:
FileOutputStream ostream = new FileOutputStream(file.getPath(),
append);
where append should be set to a boolean true as a result of your
redirect:write element. Perhaps this parameter of the FileOutputStream
constructor does not work on your platform. Can you write a small test
program that will open a file in append mode using this constructor and
see if that works on your platform?
