create a text file from postgres (like Oracle UTL_FILE package)

Hi,

Anybody know/have functions or package to create text
file from postgres function?

I want to execute a function to take some fields from
a table and save it in a text file (or xml format).
I need function like:
createfile(filename);
appendtofile(filename,text);
etc.

thanks
