[Coco] basic09 - append to file

[Wayne Campbell]

After I went to bed last night I realized my error. Forgive me for 
misleading you. I seem to recall that the way I ended up doing it was a 
filesize syscall, followed by a seek to filesize-1.

Again, I am sory for misleading you.

SEEK EOF(#fp)

returns a syntax error 28, missing path.

I've tried:

SEEK #fp,EOF(#fp)

but this causes a seek to 0, which is not entirely surprising since
eof(#fp) returns 0...  am I doing it wrong?
