Is there a way to open a write-only file in Squeak? On both Mac and Linux attempting to open such a file fails.
For example, if you create a write-only file, i.e. in a shell, after cd to default directory
echo nada > foo chmod 200 foo
Then from Squeak
StandardFileStream fileNamed: 'foo'
returns nil.
If the file is given read permission (i.e. chmod 600 foo) then Squeak can open it.
Anyone know a workaround?
Thanks, Doug
