Hi Tom,
   There's a thing I've to correct two things in your sources and a
question I have to make to you.
   First, when you use printf, first parameter should be file_num
because it's the file handler you got when you opened the file.
   Second, taken from open() reference in the manual "Files opened for
read or update must already exist." You should open it for append, with
the "a" attribute.
   The question is why are you asigning highscore = highscore.txt,
maybe you wanted to do highscore = "highscore.txt" but anyway, it's a
wasted variable, it doesn't do anything on your code.

PS: After deleting the variable highscore, updating the printf's first
parameter and using "a" in open() it worked right. Except a thing, if
you use the dos interpreter, it only handles DOS's file format (8
characters and 3 for the extention). There's a library that handles
longer files names in DOS 7 but I don't remember the name.
