Read Interchange File Format (IFF)
Read the Interchange File Format (IFF) as an IFFChunk
object.
read.iff(file, disk = NULL)
file |
A filename of an IFF file to be read, or a connection from which binary data can be read. |
disk |
A virtual Commodore Amiga disk from which the |
Information is stored as ‘chunks’ in IFF files (see IFFChunk
).
Each chunk should at least contain a label of the type of chunk and the data
for that chunk. This function reads all chunks from a valid IFF file, including
all nested chunks and stores them in an IFFChunk
object. IFF
files can hold any kind of data (e.g. images or audio), this read function
does not interpret the file. Use interpretIFFChunk
for that
purpose.
Returns a IFFChunk
object read from the specified file.
