What were you trying to do?
	Append a line to my .meetings file with cat >> .meetings

What's wrong:
	It destroyed my file. It consists of many null chars and the
line that I appended.

What should have happened:
	It should have added the line without corrupting the file.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	'()
