First, sorry this got somewhat disjointed.

I think you may have already ansered what I wanted to know but for the
sake of clarity.

The `puppy' live cd described in my quotation says it can create a
file on ntfs and this write withing that space.  In other words it
isn't normal read/write as we normally think of it.

My question to you was if ntfs-g3 can read/write in a normal way to
ntfs.  That is could one do:
   echo data >file

and then
   rm -f file

or vim file <edit> <save> in the normal way?

I think you've already said you think it can.  I was unable to tell
from the man page installed with ntfs-g3 and wanted to know for sure
before getting myself into a bind.
