title: Access a char device file from java
body: <p>When a I do <code>ls</code> for a file in linux and I see:  <code>crw-rw----</code> what does the <code>c</code> imply?<br>
  I mean I read that <code>c</code> is for character device but is there any consequence on which <code>Java</code> API I/O methods I will use (e.g. <code>BufferedWriter</code> etc) or must <strong>not</strong> use?</p>
