buffer="FALSE/TRUE"         (MUST BE STRING) whether to buffer output 
bufferSize=[4096]           int # of chars [i.e. 4096] should be the number of characters to create a string of # bytes equalling the file block size of the file system, [UTF-8 -3 chars for BOM] only use these if you need to, you can try to optimize I/O by buffering to the block size of the file system. Buffer is written when message reaches block size or on destruct/decomposition.
