note 82311 deleted from function.is-writable by tularis

Note Submitter: 27 keith at gmail dot com Reason: in docs ---- I can't understand why this function checks if the filename exists, isn't that what file_exists is for? I think it should return TRUE if and only if the file "is writable".. I know there are plenty of other ways to check if a filename is valid and writable, but it would be so nice and clean to simply: if (is_writable($new_name)) {//write the new/nonexistent file}
