I thought about this, but I don't understand why I would need to do
this:
myfile=open('test.txt','r+')
content = myfile.read()
myfile.seek()
myfile.write('added this')
myfile.close
Is there really no way to read from a file and append data to it while
keeping the file open?
Also, I noticed a problem with the code given by Garry: When opening a
file in binary mode, the EOF character is 0A, while Windows apps
expect 0D0A. VisualBasic was not happy :-)
