As per some confusion over options for File.open [1], here is a patch to attempt to clarify.

[1] http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/1731075

[drbrain (Eric Hodel)]

• Category set to doc
• Target version set to 1.9.3

[vbatts (Vincent Batts)]

Looks pretty good, but a couple of the tags are not closed, or not properly closed.
i.e. "See File."
or
"IO.new"

Otherwise, it's okay.

• File io_rdoc2.diff io_rdoc2.diff added

Uploading new version of the patch with better terminated HTML strings.
Thanks!

• File deleted (io_rdoc.diff)

[drbrain (Eric Hodel)]

I removed some of the code elements from the documentation to improve cross-references between the various methods.
