The 'ram' option to file:open/2 seems to implement some functionality I want: to treat a file in memory as if it's a file on disk to let a library support both disk and in-memory data concisely.<div><br></div><div>
It doesn't look like this option is documented, but it's probably useful to many. It looks like it's used by at least erl_tar.</div><div><br></div><div>Can this become part of the documented API of the file module?</div>
