	File.open(fn); //load for output (writing) and delete contents.
	File << lsContentstowrite; //write.
	File.close(); //close the file when done
	cout << "Done.";
}

JoshR, the changes you made are not necessary, I assume/hope you only did them to show what is going on.

Code:

void lfuncWrite(string lsFiletowrite, string lsContentstowrite)
{
	ofstream File(lsFiletowrite.c_str()); //load for output (writing) and delete contents.
	File << lsContentstowrite;	//write.
	cout << "Done.";
}
