> {{FileOutputStream}} has a constructor option named {{append}}, but all it
> does is prevent truncation of the file, i.e. it doesn't move the file pointer
> to the end. And given {{FileOutputStream}} doesn't have a seek method, this
> option is useless unless you manually seek using the file descriptor.
