IO - load various IO modules
SYNOPSIS
use IO qw(Handle File); # loads IO modules, here IO::Handle, IO::File
use IO; # DEPRECATED
DESCRIPTION
"IO" provides a simple mechanism to load several of the IO modules in one go. The IO modules belonging to the core are:
IO::Handle
IO::Seekable
IO::File
IO::Pipe
IO::Socket
IO::Dir
IO::Select
IO::Poll
Some other IO modules don't belong to the perl core but can be loaded as well if they have been installed from CPAN. You can discover
which ones exist by searching for "^IO::" on http://search.cpan.org.
For more information on any of these modules, please see its respective documentation.
DEPRECATED
use IO; # loads all the modules listed below
The loaded modules are IO::Handle, IO::Seekable, IO::File, IO::Pipe, IO::Socket, IO::Dir. You should instead explicitly import the IO
modules you want.

IO::Seekable - supply seek based methods for I/O objects
SYNOPSIS
use IO::Seekable;
package IO::Something;
@ISA = qw(IO::Seekable);
DESCRIPTION
"IO::Seekable" does not have a constructor of its own as it is intended to be inherited by other "IO::Handle" based objects. It provides
methods which allow seeking of the file descriptors.
$io->getpos
Returns an opaque value that represents the current position of the IO::File, or "undef" if this is not possible (eg an unseekable
stream such as a terminal, pipe or socket). If the fgetpos() function is available in your C library it is used to implements getpos,
else perl emulates getpos using C's ftell() function.
$io->setpos
Uses the value of a previous getpos call to return to a previously visited position. Returns "0 but true" on success, "undef" on
failure.
See perlfunc for complete descriptions of each of the following supported "IO::Seekable" methods, which are just front ends for the
corresponding built-in functions:
$io->seek ( POS, WHENCE )
Seek the IO::File to position POS, relative to WHENCE:
WHENCE=0 (SEEK_SET)
POS is absolute position. (Seek relative to the start of the file)
WHENCE=1 (SEEK_CUR)
POS is an offset from the current position. (Seek relative to current)
WHENCE=2 (SEEK_END)
POS is an offset from the end of the file. (Seek relative to end)
The SEEK_* constants can be imported from the "Fcntl" module if you don't wish to use the numbers 0 1 or 2 in your code.
Returns 1 upon success, 0 otherwise.
$io->sysseek( POS, WHENCE )
Similar to $io->seek, but sets the IO::File's position using the system call lseek(2) directly, so will confuse most perl IO operators
except sysread and syswrite (see perlfunc for full details)
Returns the new position, or "undef" on failure. A position of zero is returned as the string "0 but true"
$io->tell
Returns the IO::File's current position, or -1 on error.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
