1 A simple C++ wrapper for Unix file I/O.

3 This is intended to be lightweight and easy to use, similar to Java's
4 RandomAccessFile and related classes. The usual C++ idioms of RAII and "you
5 don't pay for what you don't use" apply.

7 In particular, the basic RandomAccessFile interface is kept small and simple so
8 it's trivial to add new implementations.

10 This code will not log, because it can't know whether that's appropriate in
11 your application.

13 This code will, in general, return -errno on failure. If an operation consisted
14 of multiple sub-operations, it will return the errno corresponding to the most
15 relevant operation.
