Re^2: 3-arg open() does not give warnings!? (3 != 1)

"FILEHANDLE" is the first argument but this thread is about the 3rd argument, so I don't see how the documentation you quote has anything to do with what is being discussed.

Update: But we aren't using "+<" nor "+>" so that section doesn't apply either.

Indeed. I quoted the wrong portion of perldoc -f open. My fault. I have updated it now!	[reply]

Update: But we aren't using "+<" nor "+>" so that section doesn't apply either. Actually it is not documented (so I was incorrect in another post that it is "perfectly" documented), but it applies. Indeed I found out that it even works with a `'<'` mode. See my own I've been bit in the neck by open().	[reply] [d/l]
