gollark: They create a temporary file, write their buffer to that, and then move the temporary file over the original, so that if they get interrupted in the middle of writing there's less chance of data loss.
gollark: Nope. No good text editor actually works like that.
gollark: I'm inferring.
gollark: Unless you've written more code than I assumed, it isn't actually doing that, it's rewriting the file with the entire array each time.
gollark: 642.
