NAME
       open_append - open a file for appending

SYNTAX
       #include	<libowfat/open.h>

       int open_append(const char *filename);

DESCRIPTION
       open_append  opens  the	file filename for appending write-only use and
       returns the file	handle.	 If it does not	exist, it will be created with
       mode 0600.  If there  was  an  error  opening  or  creating  the	 file,
       open_append returns -1 and sets errno accordingly.

       All  write  operations  will  append after the last byte, regardless of
       previous	calls to lseek(2) or other processes  also  appending  to  the
       same file.
