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 re-
     turns 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 re-
     turns -1 and sets errno accordingly.

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