# To subscribers of the xforms list from Matt Post <manimal@bobo.newaygo.mi.us> :

I need a way to load a file and present it to the user for editing,
after which he can click on save and the edited contents will be saved.
A browser doesn't work because I can't edit it, and I can't figure out
how to load a file into a multilined input, except by reading the entire
contents of the file into a variable large enough to contain it, then
using fl_set_input(obj, super_huge_variable). Is their a standard
function that I've missed to do this? Or is there another way that
anyone can think of?

Thanks
