NAME

       al_fread - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              size_t al_fread(ALLEGRO_FILE *f, void *ptr, size_t size)

DESCRIPTION

       Read 'size' bytes into the buffer pointed to by 'ptr', from the given file.

       Returns the number of bytes actually read.  If an error occurs, or the end-of-file is reached, the return
       value is a short byte count (or zero).

       al_fread()  does  not  distinguish between EOF and other errors.  Use al_feof(3alleg5) and al_ferror(3al‐
       leg5) to determine which occurred.
