in thread Writing to file with filehandler in variable, scope issue, clobber becomes append

Opening in '>' mode will clobber, of course, but opening inside of a tight loop can be inefficient. Another solution could be to truncate to 0, and then seek to 0 before printing again. But I have no idea if that's actually less inefficient.
