  nothing

  Syntax:
  -------
  FILEREAD([nTop,nLeft,nBottom,nRight],[cFileName],[cTitle],;
            [lSearch],[lMark])

  Description:
  ------------
  Lists text file [cFileName] of unlimited size in a
  programmer definable window of dimensions [nTop..nRight]

  Allows up down right left scrolling. Use this for
  reports or output sent to a disk file.

  If [cFileName]  is not passed, a box asks for the
  filespec and then allows a picklist of files of that spec. If
  [cFileName] is passed as a wildcard (i.e. "*.DOC"). a picklist
  of files of that spec is presented.

  If [nTop..nRight] are not passed, a default window of
  dimensions 2,2,22,78 is used.

  [cTitle] is an optional title. This overrides the
  default which is the file name.

  [lSearch] is a switch to allow text searches. Default
  is True

  [lMark] is a switch to allow block marking (with Copy
  to File or Print) Default is True.

  Examples:
  ---------
   REPORT FORM summary TO summary.txt
   FILEREAD(2,2,22,78,"SUMMARY.TXT","Summary File")

  Notes:
  -------
  Fileread() will use SET DEFAULT if no path is
  specified.
