package FileCache;

=head1 NAME

FileCache - keep more files open than the system permits

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    cacheout $path;
    print $path @data;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The C<cacheout> function will make sure that there's a filehandle open
for writing available as the pathname you give it.  It automatically
closes and re-opens files if you exceed your system file descriptor
maximum.

=head1 BUGS

F<sys/param.h> lies with its C<NOFILE> define on some systems,
so you may have to set $FileCache::cacheout_maxopen yourself.
