I don't have any code at the moment - you could use 'base-char which
includes


(with-open-file (out "/home/steve/file.txt"  :direction :output :element-type 'base-char :if-exists :overwrite)
                (write-string "this" out)
                (terpri out)
                (write out :stream out))
#<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "file /home/steve/file.txt" {1002E2A943}>
CL-USER>

File : 
this
#<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "file /home/steve/file.txt" {1002E2A943}>

hope this helps...
