Checking to see if a file is open (newbie)?

[Thomas Luedeke]

I'm almost embarassed to ask this, but does Ruby have any method (e.g.
File.open?) to check to see if a file is open? I see many methods in
File class, but nothing that addresses this directly. I googled it a
number of times and could not find a answer to this (dumb) question.....
