Reads a portion of the file specified by "path" and "location" into "data". Returns the number of bytes read, which may be less than "length", if an attempt was made to read past the end of the file, or -1 on error.
Syntax 
file_read_bytes( path, location, offset, length, data )
Returns the number of bytes read from the file. The file data is returned in "data".
  • path = The name or filepath of the file to open relative to the directory specified by "location"
  • location = One of "script" or "data"
  • offset = The zero-based offset at which to begin reading
  • length = The number of bytes to read. If < 0, the entire file after "offset" is read.
  • data = The variable in which to store the file data

This needs an example.
