OpenPack()

Syntax

Result = OpenPack(Filename$)

Open a pack file previously created with CreatePack(). If 'Result' is 0, the pack file can't be opened. NextPackFile() is used to retrieve and unpack data from the Pack.

Once all the read operations have been done ClosePack() should be called. Note: PureBasic automatically close any opened Packs when the program quits.
