After opening, the file is positioned at the offset location. \f(CW\*(C`seek()\*(C'\fR and \&\f(CW\*(C`tell()\*(C'\fR calls are modified to preserve the offset. .PP For example, \f(CW\*(C`tell($fh)\*(C'\fR will return 0, though the actual file position is at the offset. Likewise, \f(CW\*(C`seek($fh,80,0)\*(C'\fR will seek to 80 bytes from the offset instead of 80 bytes from the actual start of the file. .SH "SUPPORT" .IX Header "SUPPORT" .SS "Bugs / Feature Requests" .IX Subsection "Bugs / Feature Requests" Please report any bugs or feature requests through the issue tracker at .
