Isn't it just a bug that these functions are not implemented by other compilers?
Yes and no. Of course we could implement them. But I for one wasn't even aware that they existed in the API. I don't know when they were added, or by whom, and I may not even be sure what they are supposed to do. For instance, you mention not opening a file if it already exists, but the Haddock does not say anything about that. Regards, Malcolm
