eof() will check for next read on filehandle will return end of file, is there any function to check whether the next write on the filehandle will return end of file?.	[reply]

A write will never return end of file, it'll return an error. On my system, it's error 9, "Bad file descriptor". Are you asking how to check if the file is still opened? `if defined(fileno($a))`	[reply] [d/l]
