Made in Germany (at least by authors speaking German and living in Germany): 
similar for special purposes, the packages splitindex and closefrm, more 
generally scrwfile,

    http://ctan.org/pkg/scrwfile

The CTAN topic "io-mgmt",

    http://ctan.org/topic/io-mgmt

additionally names the package newfile. I do not understand why

    http://ctan.org/pkg/rvwrite

is not listed in that topic. (I remembered splitindex and found the io-mgmt
topic via

    http:/ctan.org/pkg/morewrites

)

Cheers from Germany
