-   *file* is either a string giving the name (and the path if the file isn't
-   in the current working directory) of the file to be opened or an integer
-   file descriptor of the file to be wrapped.  (If a file descriptor is given,

    *mode* is an optional string that specifies the mode in which the file is
    opened.  It defaults to ``'r'`` which means open for reading in text mode.
