<?php
/* Open a test file for reading and writing */
$fp fopen("test.txt""rw");

$rot13_filter stream_filter_append($fp"string.rot13"STREAM_FILTER_WRITE);
fwrite($fp"This is ");
stream_filter_remove($rot13_filter);
fwrite($fp"a test\n");

rewind($fp);
fpassthru($fp);
fclose($fp);

/* Expected Output
   ---------------

Guvf vf a test

 */
?>
