+ * Writing to an attribute immediately sets a value, an open file can be
+ * written to multiple times.
+ *
+ * Reading from an attribute creates a buffer from the value that might get
+ * read with multiple read calls. When the attribute has been read
+ * completely, no further read calls are possible until the file is opened
+ * again.
+ *
+ * All attributes contain a text representation of a numeric value
+ * that are accessed with the get() and set() functions.
