Sorry, but no ftruncate in win32.....closest would be "open(....O_TRUNC)..."

For what it's worth:

Aaccording to `man ftruncate` (on a Linux 2.4.18 system): "4.4BSD, SVr4
(these function calls first appeared in BSD  4.2). POSIX 1003.1‐1996  has
ftruncate. POSIX 1003.1‐2001 also has truncate, as an XSI extension."

I verified that it is also supported on FreeBSD 4.5, Solaris 8 and HP-UX 11
(though I didn't compile any tests). 

Does the win32 API offer anything similar?
