Text Files
Text files are standard ASCII data files containing text records.
Records are stored in the order in which they were written to the
file, and are accessible in sequential order. Text files are comprised of variable length records. A carriage return/line
feed terminates each record following the final byte of data in
the record. Fields are variable-sized, and may or may not be
delimited (depending on the application that created the text
file).
Text files are primarily used to import and export standard ASCII
files with Comet. They may also be used to store Internet Basic source
programs, as the Internet Basic compiler supports both text files and Comet
editor keyed files as source files.
