You need several steps to achieve this:
read all of comment.php.comment into an array
open a temp file to write
write the 'text specified' to the temp file
write the array from comment.php.comment to the temp file
once you're happy all is written, close open temp file
rename temp file to comment.php.comment
The functions you need for this can be found in the Filesystem section of
the docs.
