I wrote a post over the weekend which said a lot about libraries letting people down, and other people becoming overly dependent on them. There was an aside of sorts in there which mentioned teaching people about all of the things to look out for when you're writing to a file on a Unix-ish/POSIX-ish filesystem situation. A friend reached out asking if I had a post talking about that stuff, and near as I can tell, I do not.
That brings us to right now. I will attempt to lay down a few things that I keep in mind any time I'm creating files.
