NAME

       IO::reopen - Re-open a file.

SYNOPSIS

       File reopen( String fname, [FileMode] mode, File f )

ARGUMENTS

       fname The file name

       mode A list of file modes

       f The existing file handle

DESCRIPTION

       Re-open  a  file. This functions exactly like IO.open (3kaya) except that rather than opening a new file,
       it changes an existing file handle. This is mainly useful for re-opening the standard input,  output  and
       error streams on a different file.

    in = reopen("inputscript",[Read],stdin);
