If the problem is that you want to use a single line instead of three
line, you can add a function
Yes, I think that single line with word 'rewrite' is much more readable
than those three lines.
And yes, I can make my own function, but it is typical task - maybe it
must be in standard library?
Not every three lines of code must be a function in standard library.
And these three lines don't look enough common.
Actually the reliable code should write into a separate file and replace
the original file by the new file only if writing is successful. Or
backup the old file and restore it if writing is failed. Or do both. And
handle hard and soft links if necessary. And use file locks if needed to
prevent race condition when read/write by different processes. Depending
on the specific of the application you may need different code. Your
three lines are enough for a one-time script if the risk of a powerful
blackout or disk space exhaustion is insignificant or if the data is not
critical.
