Editing MIRC scripting language (section)

===File handling===
*Scripts can read from and write to files [<code>$read(file,[args])</code> | <code>/write</code> ]
The above is intended for singular access to the file. Because each time you issue <code>$read</code> or <code>/write</code> you open and close the file for access.
Multiple accesses, during a loop for instance, is best handled through <code>/fopen</code>, <code>/fwrite</code> and <code>/fclose</code>. Since this opens the file only once. In some cases <code>/filter</code> and <code>/savebuf</code> is an even more efficient (non scripted loop) method.
*Scripts can also copy and delete files. [<code>/copy</code> | <code>/remove</code>]
