I'm able to create a new file using

OutputStream savedFile = new FileOutputStream( newFile );

where newFile is a File object.  However, how do I create this new file
in a directory other than the current working directory?  For example
assume there is a directory in the current working directory 'test' and
I want to create a file in 'test/blah.txt'

I tried something like this:

File newFile = new File( "test/blah.txt" );


add:
	newFile.createNewFile();
in here.

OutputStream savedFile = new FileOutputStream( newFile );

But Linux (FC2) keeps saying that "test/blah.txt" is a directory, not a
file.  Any clue?
