... you [nt2282] have a question, not a doubt ... Actually, nt2282 ought to have neither, as 'Basic doubt/question' is a very poor choice for a question title. Better, perhaps, might be something along the lines of 'Contents of file not printed/written/appended to STDOUT'. ~~As nt2282 posted the OP as a registered user, it is possible for him or her to go back and change the title to a better one.~~ (Update: But see GrandFather's Re^3: Contents of file not printed to STDOUT for even better.) Otherwise, I have no problem with the use of either 'question' or 'doubt' in such a context. I value clarity most, and I accept 'doubt' without question.	[reply]

The OP can do that, but can't rename replies that have inherited the original title. A better solution is for the node to be considered for retitling and have a janitor apply magic which does rename replies as appropriate. True laziness is hard work	[reply]

No, the OP has a doubt. More, a basic doubt, nay, a very basic doubt. You are fighting a battle that has been lost. You and I may not like it but that doesn't come into it. It's a friendly, polite post with code that shows what the problem is. nt2282++, (although I do agree that the title could have been better). You succinctly identified the root of the problem, good for you. Just leave out the lectures. :-)	[reply]
