The name (and path) of the file
string data
The data that should be written to the file
number size (all)

Notes

If you are getting the error message "Could not set write directory", try setting the save directory. This is done either with love.filesystem.setIdentity or by setting the identity field in love.conf (only available with LÖVE 0.7.0 or higher).

Writing to multiple lines: Use the escape character \n to move to the next line for writing. Some editors may require \r\n in combination to work, your results may vary.
