USAGE: OPEN spec /binary /string /direct /seek /new /read /write /no-wait /lines /with end-of-line /allow access /mode args /custom params /skip length DESCRIPTION: Opens a new port connection. OPEN is a native value. ARGUMENTS: spec -- (Type: file url port object block) REFINEMENTS: /binary -- Preserves contents exactly. /string -- Translates all line terminators. /direct -- Opens the port without buffering. /seek -- Opens port in seek mode without buffering. /new -- Creates a file. (Need not already exist.) /read -- Read only. Disables write operations. /write -- Write only. Disables read operations. /no-wait -- Returns immediately without waiting if no data. /lines -- Handles data as lines. /with -- Specifies alternate line termination. end-of-line -- (Type: char string) /allow -- Specifies the protection attributes when created. access -- (Type: block) /mode -- Block of above refinements. args -- (Type: block) /custom -- Allows special refinements. params -- (Type: block) /skip -- Skips a number of bytes. length -- (Type: number) SOURCE CODE open: native[ "Opens a new port connection." spec [file! url! port! object! block!] /binary "Preserves contents exactly." /string "Translates all line terminators." /direct "Opens the port without buffering." /seek "Opens port in seek mode without buffering." /new "Creates a file.
