• fileOpen
• fileClose
• fileIsValid
• fileRead
• fileWrite
• fileSeekEnd
• fileRewind
• fileTell

Then there are a few helpers functions for reading / writing:

• Writing:
  • filePutc
  • filePuts
  • filePrintf
  • fileWriteWhole
• Reading:
  • fileReadWhole
  • fileReadWholeStr

There are also some functions to get info about a file without having to open it:

• fileExists
• fileSize
• fileGetTime
• fileHasChanged

And finally, there are some helper functions:

• fileGetFullPath (for windows)
• fileSplitPath / fileGetFilename / fileGetExtension
• fileDelete
