This provides a way for callers to create files for writing. We define flags which mirror the POSIX values.
Another approach would be to translate the flags at runtime. Perhaps we can leave to whoever wants to port this to another OS?
as i mentioned, this isn't a linux-vs-non-linux issue. even linux ports themselves disagree on the open() flags.
+#define OS_O_RDONLY 0 +#define OS_O_WRONLY 1 +#define OS_O_RDWR 2
these are "fine" for linux as every port i see uses these values
+#define OS_O_CREAT 0100
as soon as you get beyond the extreme basics, you start seeing bitfield drift. not all linux arches define O_CREAT to 0100. so i'd like to see logic similar to what i did for lseek(). i.e. make you bite the bullet :P. -mike
