              You can put a '+' in front of the '>' or '<' to
              indicate that you want both read and write access
              to the file; thus '+<' is almost always preferred
              for read/write updates--the '+>' mode would clob-
              ber the file first.

Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live. -- Damian Conway in "Perl Best Practices"
