I changed handle to fp (rather than the other way 'round) because all of
those files listed used "fp" except for the ONE that used "handle".
That's of course not to say that we can't still change 'em all to
"handle", but there are several examples peppered throughout the manual
which use $fp as the resource variable.

I'm personnally -1 on using "handle" as the parameter name, but it's a
weak -1... maybe more of a -0.5
