29 /* LOCATION */
30 struct DosLibrary *, DOSBase, 51, Dos)
32 /* FUNCTION
33 Get a character from a buffered file. Buffered I/O is more efficient
34 for small amounts of data but less for big chunks. You have to
35 use Flush() between buffered and non-buffered I/O or you'll
36 clutter your I/O stream.
38 INPUTS
39 file - filehandle
41 RESULT
42 The character read or EOF if the file ended or an error happened.
43 IoErr() gives additional information in that case.
