It's a shame but no:(
And there is more bugs related to open/direct...
...for example is this bahaviour:
write %test "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
f: open/direct %test
skip f 5
change/part f "1234" 4
close f
print read %test
;== abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234
;shouldn't it be "abcde1234jklmnopqrstuvwxyz" ?
f: open/direct %test
change f "1234"
close f
print read %test
;== 1234efghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234
f: open/direct %test
remove/part f 3
close f
print read %test
;== 1234efghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234
;shouldn't it be "4efghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234" ?
With such a Rebol's functionality it's impossible to work with a really large
