I would like to save my files to iCloud Drive, but I can’t find a way to do this. I put a couple of files there and I can’t find iCloud Drive in the Open File system in Chirp. Anyone have any ideas?

Depend on how you feel you should be aware of this part of the T&C for iCloud.

Do you want to allow iCloud to publish your files? Or to MODIFY them? I know I don't.
I would never use a cloud service for my files as some of them claim ownership of the files, or in this case claim they can MODIFY the file without my permission.
