Unix doesn't differentiate between different types of files. They are all
just files. Perl is the same way. Do you want to touch an existing file
or create a new file? If you want to touch an existing file, just to
update it's atime/mtime, look at the utime() function. If you want to
create a new file, open it, write nothing to it, and close it.
