### Description

This block allows user to save data in a file, in formatted and binary mode. Each call to the block corresponds to a record in the file. Each record has the following form: where is the value of time when block is called and is the ith input value.
The pair block is RFILE.

### Dialog box

- Input size
  a scalar. This fixes the input size.
  Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1.

- Output file name
  a character string defining the path of the file.
  Properties : Type 'str' of size 1.

- Output Format
  a character string defining the Fortran format to use or nothing for an unformatted (binary) write. If given, the format must began by a left parenthesis and end by a right parenthesis. example: .
  Properties : Type 'str' of size 1.

- Buffer size
  To improve efficiency it is possible to buffer the input data. Write on the file is only done after each Buffer size call to the block.
  Properties : Type 'vec' of size 1.

### Default properties
