Saving “ Marks To File Using TextView

TextView - Saving TextView text to a file. Cannot save when text contains a “ quotation mark. All other normal characters can be saved.

     jf.write(JWriteNote.text)
     jf.close()

@James007 this works(see 'wt')

import ui

v = ui.View()
v.frame = (0,0,400,400)

JWriteNote = ui.TextField(name ='JWriteNote')
JWriteNote.frame = (10,10,200,32)
v.add_subview(JWriteNote)

b = ui.ButtonItem()
b.title = 'save'
def SAVE_SCOPEB(sender):
	with open('Note_Data.py', 'wt') as jf:
		jf.write(JWriteNote.text)
b.action = SAVE_SCOPEB
v.right_button_items = (b,)

v.present('sheet')
