Given:

Writer.Initialize(File.OpenOutput(File.DirDefaultExternal, "1.txt", False))

what does the "False" switch do vs "True"? I did not see any explanation of that parameter.

I think I found it

I believe it is a switch for read only. The switch is not specifically mentioned in the delcaration in the library.

You can see it in the documentation:
Basic4android Search: File.OpenOutput

Or in the IDE:
