+.SH "Detailed Description"
+.PP
+Caches a text file into memory and can be used to retrieve lines from it.
+
+This class contains methods for read-only manipulation of a text file in memory. Either use the constructor type with one parameter to load a file into memory at construction, or use the LoadFile method to load a file.

+Default constructor.This method does not load any file into memory, you must use the LoadFile method after constructing the class this way.Definition at line 398 of file modules.cpp.

+Secondary constructor.This method initialises the class with a file loaded into it ready for GetLine and and other methods to be called. If the file could not be loaded, \fBFileReader::FileSize\fP returns 0.Definition at line 391 of file modules.cpp.
