Working with the File System

After completing my image resizing and database applications, I am working on creating a simple AIR application that manipulates/creates a file on the local machine. The application will allow a user to browse for an existing file, make edits to the file, and save it to specified directory (essentially a simplified text editor, similar to notepad). I have begun work on the application, with the basic GUI set up and the basic logic working, but I will need to figure out what AIR file methods are available to both read and write from files/filestreams, as well as how to allow the user to browse his system's file system.

I may end up building on this application to use the AIR default menus.
