Talk:File.Read

From GMod Wiki

The filename does not have to end in .txt, this code will print the contents of garrysmod.fgd to the console:

local contents = file.Read("../garrysmod.fgd")
Msg(contents .. "\n")

It's true, you can open any file that's not .lua, testing with html, cfg, vdf, db. Jake 23:01, 14 May 2007 (GMT-5)
