IO mode for line-sequential files is not supported.

Line sequential files have variable length records, with a <LF> delimiter.
So a re-write would not work properly.

Hint:
You can create a sequential file (fixed record length) with a <LF> as the last character of
each record.
Then you can open the file in IO mode.
