IO.reopen(3kaya)
NAME
IO::reopen - Re-open a file.
SYNOPSIS
File reopen( String fname, [FileMode] mode, File f )
ARGUMENTS
fname The file name
mode A list of file modes
f The existing file handle
DESCRIPTION
- Re-open a file. This functions exactly like IO.open (3kaya) except that
rather than opening a new file, it changes an existing file handle.
This is mainly useful for re-opening the standard input, output and
error streams on a different file.
- in = reopen("inputscript",[Read],stdin);
