=head1 NAME

FileHandle - supply object methods for filehandles

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use FileHandle;

    $fh = new FileHandle;
    if ($fh->open "< file") {
        print <$fh>;
        $fh->close;
    }

    $fh = new FileHandle "> FOO";
    if (defined $fh) {
        print $fh "bar\n";
        $fh->close;
    }

    $fh = new FileHandle "file", "r";
    if (defined $fh) {
        print <$fh>;
        undef $fh;       # automatically closes the file
    }

    $fh = new FileHandle "file", O_WRONLY|O_APPEND;
    if (defined $fh) {
        print $fh "corge\n";
        undef $fh;       # automatically closes the file
    }

    ($readfh, $writefh) = FileHandle::pipe;

    autoflush STDOUT 1;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<FileHandle::new> creates a C<FileHandle>, which is a reference to a
newly created symbol (see the C<Symbol> package).  If it receives any
parameters, they are passed to C<FileHandle::open>; if the open fails,
the C<FileHandle> object is destroyed.  Otherwise, it is returned to
the caller.

C<FileHandle::new_from_fd> creates a C<FileHandle> like C<new> does.
It requires two parameters, which are passed to C<FileHandle::fdopen>;
if the fdopen fails, the C<FileHandle> object is destroyed.
Otherwise, it is returned to the caller.

C<FileHandle::open> accepts one parameter or two.  With one parameter,
it is just a front end for the built-in C<open> function.  With two
parameters, the first parameter is a filename that may include
whitespace or other special characters, and the second parameter is
the open mode in either Perl form (">", "+<", etc.) or POSIX form
("w", "r+", etc.).

C<FileHandle::fdopen> is like C<open> except that its first parameter
is not a filename but rather a file handle name, a FileHandle object,
or a file descriptor number.

See L<perlfunc> for complete descriptions of each of the following
supported C<FileHandle> methods, which are just front ends for the
corresponding built-in functions:

    close
    fileno
    getc
    gets
    eof
    clearerr
    seek
    tell

See L<perlvar> for complete descriptions of each of the following
supported C<FileHandle> methods:

    autoflush
    output_field_separator
    output_record_separator
    input_record_separator
    input_line_number
    format_page_number
    format_lines_per_page
    format_lines_left
    format_name
    format_top_name
    format_line_break_characters
    format_formfeed

Furthermore, for doing normal I/O you might need these:

=over

=item $fh->print

See L<perlfunc/print>.

=item $fh->printf

See L<perlfunc/printf>.

=item $fh->getline

This works like <$fh> described in L<perlop/"I/O Operators">
except that it's more readable and can be safely called in an
array context but still returns just one line.

=item $fh->getlines

This works like <$fh> when called in an array context to
read all the remaining lines in a file, except that it's more readable.
It will also croak() if accidentally called in a scalar context.

=head1 BUGS

Due to backwards compatibility, all filehandles resemble objects
of class C<FileHandle>, or actually classes derived from that class.
They actually aren't.  Which means you can't derive your own
class from C<FileHandle> and inherit those methods.
