Details

TEXWRIT transfers text information from an existing text segment (TEXSEG) in an image file (FILE) to a new text file (TFILE).

TEXWRIT allows you to edit information (for example, attribute data) contained in the text segment by transferring the data to a text file. You can then use TEXREAD to replace the edited text data in the original text segment.
