FileTools[Text][ReadString] - read a string from a file
Calling Sequence
ReadString(file)
Parameters
file
-
file descriptor or filename
Description
The ReadString(file) command reads a whitespace delimited string from file.
If file is the name of a file that has not been opened, Maple attempts to open the file before reading the character.
An error is raised if file is not a valid descriptor or if it is the name of a file that cannot be opened.
If the end of the file has been reached, ReadString returns NULL. To determine if the end of file has been reached, use AtEndOfFile.
