FileCache(3)                                                      FileCache(3)



NAME
     FileCache - keep more files open than the system permits

SYNOPSIS
         cacheout $path;
         print $path @data;


DESCRIPTION
     The cacheout function will make sure that there's a filehandle open for
     writing available as the pathname you give it.  It automatically closes
     and re-opens files if you exceed your system file descriptor maximum.

BUGS
     sys/param.h lies with its NOFILE define on some systems, so you may have
     to set $FileCache::cacheout_maxopen yourself.
