Peter,
I would consider it high praise, not something else. Over here in The

of one that is derogatory.

I've gone ahead and added a Bug report 16761.
When a Windows user report back I'll add it - or they can add to the report
themselves.

Folks,
Richard has confirmed he's not seeing this on Linux.
Jacque has confirmed the Bug on OS X.
If I can just get a Win user to check I'll then add a Bug report.
So please Win users can you, in the msg box:

I'm not the team, but logic tells me that opening a file for append will always
be faster and more efficient because the URL syntax works as a container, like
a field or a variable. Every time you reference a URL, the entirety is read
into RAM. I've always used "open for append" for that reason

I do the same if I am modifying a specific line in an existing file.
However, if I am appending to a file such as for logging, I use the before
or after modifiers in a file URL.
put "Log entry data" after URL ("file:" & specialFolderPath("documents") &
tLogFileName)

It probably hasn't broken mine because I don't rely on the file pointers.
I always read the entire file, modify, then write the entire container back.
