     Adds <parameter>filtername</parameter> to the list of filters 
     attached to <parameter>stream</parameter>.  This filter will be
     added with the specified <parameter>params</parameter>
     to the <emphasis>end</emphasis> of the list and
     will therefore be called last during stream operations.  To
     add a filter to the beginning of the list, use 
     <function>stream_filter_prepend</function>.
    </para>
    <para>
     By default, <function>stream_filter_append</function> will
     attach the filter to the <literal>read filter chain</literal>
     if the file was opened for reading (i.e. File Mode:
     <literal>r</literal>, and/or <literal>+</literal>).  The filter
     will also be attached to the <literal>write filter chain</literal>
     if the file was opened for writing (i.e. File Mode:
     <literal>w</literal>, <literal>a</literal>, and/or <literal>+</literal>).
     <constant>STREAM_FILTER_READ</constant>,
     <constant>STREAM_FILTER_WRITE</constant>, and/or
     <constant>STREAM_FILTER_ALL</constant> can also be passed to the
     <parameter>read_write</parameter> parameter to override this behavior.

    <para>
     As of PHP 5.1.0, this function returns a resource which
     can be used to refer to this filter instance during a call
     to <function>stream_filter_remove</function>.
     Prior to PHP 5.1.0, this function returns &true; on success
     or &false; on failure.

    <note>
     <simpara>
      Stream data is read from resources (both local and remote) in chunks,
      with any unconsumed data kept in internal buffers.  When a new
      filter is appended to a stream, data in the internal buffers is processed through
      the new filter at that time.  This differs from the behavior of
      <function>stream_filter_prepend</function>.
