FCLOSE 
(changed) 

The FCLOSE intrinsic has been modified to incorporate enhancements to the
disposition parameter described below. 

With the Domain Disposition item, you can make the specified permanent
standard disk file temporary (valid only for standard disk files with
either fixed-length, variable-length, or undefined-length record
formats).  The file is moved from a permanent file directory to a
temporary file directory.  (You must be privileged to use this option.) 

With the Disk Space Disposition item, you can specify that the disk space
beyond the EOF marker be released to the system.  The file limit remains
in its current position.  (Valid only for standard disk files with either
fixed-length, variable-length, or undefined-length record formats.)
