- * TclWinOpenFileChannel --
+ * TclWinFlushDirtyChannels --
*
- * Constructs a File channel for the specified standard OS handle.
- * This is a helper function to break up the construction of
- * channels into File, Console, or Serial.
+ * Flush all dirty channels to disk, so that requesting the
+ * size of any file returns the correct value.
*
* Results:
- * Returns the new channel, or NULL.
+ * None.
*
* Side effects:
- * May open the channel and may cause creation of a file on the
- * file system.
+ * Information is actually written to disk now, rather than
+ * later. Don't call this too often, or there will be a
+ * performance hit (i.e. only call when we need to ask for
+ * the size of a file).
