Hi, all.

In plain TeX format:
I want to output stuff into a file, let's call it `bluefile.tex'.
In `myfile.tex' I say:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%begin of myfile.tex%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\newwrite\blue

\immediate\openout\blue=bluefile

\outer\def\putstuffoverthere#1#2{\immediate\write\blue{#1, #2!}}

\putstuffoverthere{Hallo}{folks}

\immediate\closeout\blue

{\catcode`@=11 \input bluefile }

\bye
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%end of myfile.tex%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

and got

Hallo, folks!

in the ouput file.
Now, I would like all the stuff that gets into bluefile.tex to be aligned
according, e.g., to the template

\halign{#&#\cr}

, i.e. all the bluefile.tex to be structured according to that alignment
template.
Is it possible to achieve this, and how?

Thanks,
        Rodolfo
