The relevant chapter of Dorai Sitaram's Teach_Yourself_Scheme_
_in_Fixnum_Days. (This may be what you are looking for.)

The draft of How_to_Use_Scheme has already some pages on file I/O.
This book relies on that Scheme system whose didactic front end you
seem to use (if I don't mix up things).

Since you are posting to comp.lang.scheme.SCSH -- browse sections 3.2
and 3.3 of the scsh manual dealing with file I/O and file system
operations:
