	@doc:	file
	@keyterms:
		file object class, creating files
	@title:
		file class
	@type:
		class
	@short:
		I/O device that operates on files
	@inherits:
		[class]object[/class]
	@description:
		This object class provides access to files - basic I/O
		operations, copying, removing etc...
	@functions:
		!fn: $setName(<file_name:string>)
		Sets the file name to <file_name>. It does [b]not move[/b] the file,
		it just changes the file the object is "pointing to". You can
		not change names of already open files.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$open[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$name[/classfnc]().
		!fn: <string> $name()
		Returns name set by [classfnc]$setName[/classfnc]().[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$setName[/classfnc]().
		!fn: $open(<mode1:string>, <mode2:string>)
		Attempts to open the file in specified mode or modes "sum".
		Valid modes are:[br]
		[pre]
		Raw          - raw, non-buffered access[br]
		ReadOnly     - opens the file read-only[br]
		WriteOnly    - opens the file write-only[br]
		ReadWrite    - opens the file in read-write mode[br]
		Append       - opens the file in append mode. The file index is set to the end of the file.[br]
		Truncate     - truncates the file[br]
		[/pre]
		If you call this function without any parameters, the file is
		opened in ReadOnly mode.[br]
		When working with buffered files, data is not written directly
		to the file at once. You must call [classfnc]$flush[/classfnc]() to force it.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$close[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$flush[/classfnc]().
		!fn: <boolean> $isOpen()
		Returns '1' if the file is open, '0' otherwise.
		!fn: $close()
		Closes the file, flushing the buffers first.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$flush[/classfnc]().
		!fn: $flush()
		Flushes the file buffer to disk. Calling this after opening the
		file in 'Raw' mode doesn't make much sense.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$open[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$close[/classfnc]().
		!fn: <integer> $size()
		Returns current file size.
		!fn: <boolean> $atEnd()
		Returns '1' if you have reached end of the file, '0' otherwise.
		[br]See also: [classfnc]$seek[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$where[/classfnc]().
		!fn: <integer> $where()
		Returns current position in the file (file index).[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$seek[/classfnc]().
		!fn: $seek(<index:integer>)
		Sets the file index to <index>.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$where[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$atEnd[/classfnc]().
		!fn: $putch(<char>)
		Writes character <char> to the file and increments file
		index.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$getch[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$ungetch[/classfnc]().
		!fn: <char> $getch()
		Reads a character from the file and increments file index.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$putch[/classfnc](),
		[classfnc]$ungetch[/classfnc]().
		!fn: $ungetch(<char>)
		Puts the character <char> back to the file and
		decrements the file index. This is usually called to undo a
		$getch() call.[br]
		See also: [classfnc]$getch[/classfnc],
		[classfnc]$putch[/classfnc]().
		!fn: $readLine(<text_line:string>)
		Reads a line of text from the file and increments file index.
		!fn: $writeLine(<text_line:string>)
		Appends a line of text to the end of the file.
		$readBlock()
		$writeBlock()
