You can use the File class to open a file and the scanner class to read it. It isn't that difficult to write a simple text reader.

Java Learner,

These other two posters are heavily experienced, I did not try to get this to compile: They can help you with this:

import java.io.File;// 
import java.io.PrintWriter://
public class FileDemo
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Simple
        for(int i= 0;i < args.length;i++)
        {
            File nextFile = new File(args[i]);
            if(nextFile.exists())
            {
                ;// That file already exists.
            }
            else
            {
                PrintWriter printWrite
                =
                new PrintWriter(nextFile);
        }
    }
}
