   Could you clarify? ...   
      
   I.e., both fopen() and freopen() require the file type, either text or   
   binary, for the three modes: read 'r', write 'w', and append 'a'.  ANSI   
   C defaults to opening files as text, unless the file is opened as   
   binary, either by specifying binary mode by adding a 'b' to the mode,   
   or by specifying update mode by adding a '+' to the mode.
