An interface to fast FILE I/O
It's based on an old and hacked version
of the BSD FILE*
To install, type make; make install
and it shuld install itself as an app in your
erlang dir.
See the source src/bfile.erl for API
Here's an example shell session:
2> bfile:load_driver().
ok
4> {ok, Fd} = bfile:fopen("Makefile", "r").
{ok,{bfile,#Port<0.98>}}
5> bfile:fgets(Fd).
{line,<<10>>}
6> bfile:fgets(Fd).
{line,<<10>>}
7> bfile:fgets(Fd).
{line,<<97,108,108,58,32,10>>}
14> bfile:fread(Fd, 10000).
{ok,<<10,10,105,110,115,116,97,108,108,58,32,97,108,108,10,9,40,99,100,32,99,95,115,114,99,59,32,...>>}
15> bfile:fread(Fd, 10000).
