Title: Question

I think this capability is only in the WIP (beta) versions at the moment, as I believe they have 'proper' file i/o functions.

Yes you can in the WIP version.

Look at the Buffers section. While you wont be able to test it yourself you could still try to write a script based on the WIP specs.

Hmm, maybe you could or someone else could post an example of how to begin editing a file, using buffers, 1 byte at a time ?

You could also read in only the part that you want to edit (instead of loading the whole file into memory), and write that part out.
