Re: [PATCH] copy_file_file: Use binary mode when opening the source/destination file

["Alexander Varakin" <avarakin00 hotmail com>]

It looks like we will end up adding O_BINARY flag to all mc_open calls (I
did the same change for editor).
Maybe it is a good idea to write  mc_open as a wraper function (now it is
macro) , and in this function always set O_BINARY, something like this:
int mc_open(char * filename, int flags)
{
    return open(filename, flags | O_BINARY);
}

Pavel R. , what do you think about this?
