All files are opened in "binary" format on Linux. It's a kludge that had to be introduced to cope with Micro$oft text files that use stupid line terminations (\r\n). It's MS text files that have to opened "specially" to merge the \r\n into a single \n. Have you actually got a problem, or did the ANSI C reference in the manpage confuse you?
