+// key material, etc. Generally, these are all going to be relatively
+// small objects (such as certificates), so we only require a synchronous
+// implementation from platforms. We provide a very limited and simple
+// file API for these purposes; basic CRUD operations only, plus a way
+// to iterate over names. These are adequate for NNG's internal uses;
+// applications should use normal platform-specific APIs or those in the
+// standard C library.

+// and the given size. If the file already exists it is overwritten.
+// The permissions on the file will allow the application to read and
+// write the file, but may (should) restrict anything else beyond that
+// where they can. If the name contains platform specific directory
+// separators, then any missing parent directories will be created if
