You need to do something like:
open file for read
while(condition not met)
read file line by line into array
endwhile
add your element(s) to the array
read the rest of the file into the array
close file
open file for write [which will truncate the file]
write the array to file
close file
You could perhaps enhance this by writing to say a temp file and once you
are satisfied the write is complete, rename the temp file to the original.
The 'while condition not met' is the test you use to determine when you
get to the part of the file where you want to add your bits.
