File handling
Please refer to the official wiki:
http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/lang/open
You can read a file with some text for example.
With Gambas 1
' Gambas 1
Dim OneLine As String
Dim FileName As String = "/home/moi/test.txt"
Dim hFile As File
OPEN FileName FOR READ AS #hFile
WHILE NOT Eof(hFile)
LINE INPUT #hFile, OneLine
PRINT OneLine
WEND
CLOSE #hFile
It's a bit easier with Gambas 3.
' Gambas 3
Dim hFile As File
Dim OneLine As String
Dim FileName As String = "/home/moi/test.txt"
hFile = Open FileName For Read
While Not Eof(hFile)
Line Input #hFile, OneLine
Label1.Text = OneLine
Wend
Close #hFile
