LINE INPUT will now use the faster method if passed a file handle that has been opened FOR BINARY. As such, the _BLINEINPUT command has been removed. qb64.bas now takes advantage of this for reading from '$include files, at least in Include Manager 1. Some tweaking of internal/source/main.txt was required to get things into a sane state, so I'm holing off changing the compiler any further so the auto-builder can make sure everything's smoothed over. Note: Everything should still compile as normal; I'm just being overcautious.

The '''SEEK''' function returns the current byte or record position in a file.

{{PageSyntax}}

|
:: byte% = SEEK(filenumber%)
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Filenumber is the number of an [[OPEN]] file in any mode.
|
|
* In [[RANDOM]] files SEEK returns the current record position.
|
|
* In [[BINARY]] or sequencial files SEEK returns the current byte position(first byte = 1).
|
|
* Since the first file position is 1 it may require adding one to an offset value when documentation uses that position as 0.
|
|
* Devices that do not support SEEK (SCRN, CONS, KBRD, COMn and LPTn) return 0.
