Re: File.new variable with extension

What you want to do is:

File.new(@page.title + '.txt', 'w' ) {|file| file << 'content' }

Above the "file << 'content'" makes sure that the file pointer is
closed after the content is written instead of leaving it open as in
your example "file.write( 'testfile' )".
