/*
 * fmemopen() - "my" version of a string stream
 * Hanno Mueller, kontakt@hanno.de
 *
 *
 * I needed fmemopen() for an application that I currently work on,
 * but couldn't find it in libio. The following snippet of code is an
 * attempt to implement what glibc's documentation describes.
 *
 * No, it isn't really tested yet. :-)
 *
 *
 *
 * I already see some potential problems:
 *
 * - I never used the "original" fmemopen(). I am sure that "my"
 *   fmemopen() behaves differently than the original version.
 *
 * - The documentation doesn't say wether a string stream allows
 *   seeks. I checked the old fmemopen implementation in glibc's stdio
 *   directory, wasn't quite able to see what is going on in that
 *   source, but as far as I understand there was no seek there. For
 *   my application, I needed fseek() and ftell(), so it's here.
 *
 * - "append" mode and fseek(p, SEEK_END) have two different ideas
 *   about the "end" of the stream.
 *
 *   As described in the documentation, when opening the file in
 *   "append" mode, the position pointer will be set to the first null
 *   character of the string buffer (yet the buffer may already
 *   contain more data). For fseek(), the last byte of the buffer is
 *   used as the end of the stream.
 *
 * - It is unclear to me what the documentation tries to say when it
 *   explains what happens when you use fmemopen with a NULL
 *   buffer.
 *
 *   Quote: "fmemopen [then] allocates an array SIZE bytes long. This
 *   is really only useful if you are going to write things to the
 *   buffer and then read them back in again."
 *
 *   What does that mean if the original fmemopen() did not allow
 *   seeking? How do you read what you just wrote without seeking back
 *   to the beginning of the stream?
 *
 * - I think there should be a second version of fmemopen() that does
 *   not add null characters for each write. (At least in my
 *   application, I am not actually using strings but binary data and
 *   so I don't need the stream to add null characters on its own.)
