That's because seek() returns the previous position ("before any
move", the one that the help page calls "current"), not the one after
the seek. Fortunately, calling seek(origin = "start") twice with the
same offset doesn't break anything.

That's strange. You started at offset 2 and read three bytes. You
should be at offset 5 at this point. For me, seek() returns 5 here, not
6.

But after this, we should be on position 6.

It's described in help(seek) that R maintains two different pointers
for reading and writing a file. You have been reading it, advancing the
read pointer to 6, but the write pointer stayed at offset 0.
Try seek(con_in, seek(con_in, 0, 'current', 'read'), 'start', 'write')
to set the write pointer to the read pointer before issuing writes.
This seems to give me the expected result.
