I looked at this. The approach I was going to take was to put
into the C code an "open", "close", "read", and "lseek" concept
and that would need a new "type" for a file descriptor. You
might as well add "write" to complete the set. There is
nothing currently like that in the C code.
Perhaps ‘insert-file-contents’ can be used to implement this
feature in Lisp.
