If you are creating files, why would you kill them?

Unseen was saying that you cannot only check for file, you can also create them if they don't exist. Take your choice.

KILL does not ask and totally deletes a file unless it was never there.
The file won't be in your "trash" either!

1) In order to OPEN a file, it MUST exist or error

2) In order to read a file, it MUST have data or error.

LOF can tell you that data exists. EOF tells you where the data ends.

Using ANY OPEN mode besides INPUT will create a file. OUTPUT clears all data in the file if there was any.
