    Is it possible to have data entered through the SAEF or Freeform module written to an external text file?

    I’d have to assume your solution will require some PHP.

    Yeah, this would require a custom add-on. There are some extension hooks for publishing entries and I assume (but don’t know for sure) if those work using SAEF or only when publishing through the CP.

    Sure, the SAEF could do it. You “just” need to add the code to write the data to the file. Not much of a problem with PHP, in general, but not out-of-the-box functionality.
