Readstring()

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Readstring()

ok thanks,

trouble is, the file is old and i havnt got the code that wrote it, i only know the file structure.
How does blitz3d darkbasic etc know what to read? are all strings written of length 255? or something.
I tried reading in an int first and got a mav.

ill keep fiddling
cheers
