Come-on guys! Read your mails. John Krahn spent the time to write a wonderful explanation why || simply DOES NOT WORK when used with open (although it works for the general case, which does not constitute the term 'works'). Don't lure beginners into thinking this is a matter of style (like I used to think myself). There is a very rigid logical explanation behibd it, and whether you are a beginner or not doesn't change the facts.
