file_bin_size

This function will return the size (in bytes) of a file that has been opened for reading and/or writing. The File ID is the value returned by the function file_bin_open().

NOTE: These functions do not work when the target module is HTML5.

Syntax:

file_bin_size(binfile);

Returns:

Real

Example:

file = file_bin_open("myfile.bin", 2);
size = file_bin_size(file);
file_bin_close(file);

This would open a file from the local directory of the game, and assign its index to the variable "file". It would then get the size of that file and close it again.
