New page

<pre>
FileOpenText( <filename> )
</pre>

=== Description ===

Opens a file for reading only (text files only) .

=== Parameters ===

==== filename ====

Name of the text file to open.

=== Return Value ===

Success: Returns a text file "handle" for use with subsequent file functions

Failure: Returns null if error occurs.

=== Remarks ===

This does NOT return the same "handle" used by FileOpen() so you cannot use it in the same places as that however the following functions do support the handled returned from FileOpenText().

FilePos(), FileSeek(), FileReadText()

=== Example ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="sputnik">
// Open the file and return the handle
my $f = FileOpenText("Main.spk");
if ($f)
{
// Read the first line
say FileReadText($f, 'l');
// Read the second line
say FileReadText($f, 'l');
// Read a char
say FileReadText($f, 'c');
// Read a 8 char
say FileReadText($f, 'c', 8);
}
// free the handle
FileClose($f);
</syntaxhighlight>
