> Delete the specified FILE.
> 
> If FILE is a stream, on Windows the stream is closed immediately. On Unix
> platforms the stream remains open, allowing IO to continue: the OS resources
> associated with the deleted file remain available till the stream is closed as
> per standard Unix unlink() behaviour.
