I am having problems using the Fread system call. This call will either crash my system, or more likely result in 2-3, sometimes 10 bombs, depending on the number of bytes I try to read. Using MWC 2.0, the code is similar to the following: h = Fopen(filename,0); Fread(h,4096L,buf); h is an integer, and buf is a 4096-character array. The file is opened properly, but the Fread bombs. The file is binary, if this makes any difference. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has successfully used the Fread call and can help me out. Thanks... ------- David Rubin | INTERNET: RUBIN@graf.poly.edu Polytechnic University | BITNET: RUBIN@POLYGRAF Brooklyn, NY | #! rnews
