NAME
Freadlink - determine contents of a symbolic link
SYNOPSIS
LONG Freadlink( WORD bufsiz, char *buf, char *name );
DESCRIPTION
Freadlink
determines what file the symbolic link

points to, i.e. what the first argument to the
Fsymlink
call that created
name
was. This 0-terminated string is placed in the memory region pointed
to by
buf.
The total size of this region is given by
bufsiz;
this must be enough to hold the terminating 0.

buf.
EFILNF if
name
is not found.
EACCDN if
name
is not the name of a symbolic link.
EINVFN if the file system containing
name
does not support symbolic links.

BUGS

readlink
call returns the number of bytes read on success, rather than 0.
