The /bread command can be used to read a certain amount of bytes from a file at a given position and store it in a binary variable.
The beginning of the file is position 0.
Synopsis
/bread -t <filename> <bytepos> <numbytes> <&bvar>
Switches
- -t - Reads data up to the next CR/LF
Parameters
- <filename> - The file name to read from.
- <bytepos> - The starting byte position.
- <numbytes> - The length (bytes) to be read.
- <&bvar> - The binary variable to store the data in.
Example
;noop $copyExample(FileA,FileB) alias copyExample { ;Read the whole file into a binary variable bread $qt($1) 0 $file($1).size &tempFile ;Write the bytes form the binary variable to a file bwrite $qt($2) 0 -1 &tempFile }
