asynchronous file object This is an object with an API identical to a :term:file object, with the exception that all methods that do I/O are async functions.

   The main ways to create an asynchronous file object are by using the
   :func:`trio.open_file` function or the :meth:`trio.Path.open`
   method. See :ref:`async-file-io` for more details.
