Summary: Mention behavior of seek() on text files
Initial Comment:
Document the fact that seek() on text files can lead to
undefined results, rather than leaving the user to read
ftell() docs to find out.

":se of other offsets" should have read "Use of other offsets". Or else it should match the libstdtypes.tex wording, "Other offsets cause undefined behavior." The patch I'm attaching now says "Use of other offets causes", and copies the docstring warning "not all file objects are seekable" into the tex documentation.
