###Function###
FileRead

###Description###
Read in a number of characters from a previously opened text file.

###Syntax###
FileRead ( filehandle or "filename" [, count] )


###Parameters###
@@ParamTable@@
filehandle
	The handle of a file, as returned by a previous call to FileOpen.  Alternatively you may use a string filename as the first parameter.
count
	[optional] The number of characters to read. Default read the entire file.
@@End@@

###ReturnValue###
@@ReturnTable@@
Success:	Returns the binary/string read.
Special:	Sets @error to -1 if end-of-file is reached.
Failure:	Sets @error to 1 if file not opened in read mode or other error.
@@End@@


###Remarks###
If a filename is given rather than a file handle - the file will be opened and closed during the function call - for parsing large text files this will be much slower than using filehandles.
Note: Do not mix filehandles and filenames, i.e., don't FileOpen a file and then use a filename in this function.  Use either filehandles or filenames in your routines, not both!

If the file was opened in Raw mode=4, the count must be a multiple of the sector size (512).

If binary data are received they can be converted in hexadecimal string with the String function.
