The functions allow for manipulation of binary data which would otherwise be difficult due to the fact that TE variables store data as null terminated ascii strings. Buffers are used mainly for reading and writing binary data to and from files. |
|
|
The file handle functions allow for files to be opened and read from and written to. This functions can be used in conjuction with the buffer manipulation functions to read and write binary files, or for reading and writing Ascii text files. |

The file system function offer the ability to manaipulate the file system and the directory and file level (E.g copying or renaming files and searching directories) |
|
