Reads a single line of text.

syntaxSyntax:
DlxFile.ReadLine()

Return Value

If the operation finishes successfully, it returns the text string, otherwise it returns an empty string.

Remarks

Reading is stopped by the first newline character. If the file is of binary type (opened with DlxApp.FILEOPEN_READBINARY) only the byte at the current location is read and the location is incremented by one.

}
// read file
