Hi!

I am writing a little class for loading .pcx-files and showing them on the
screen.
My problem is that I use the following code to open a .pcx-file and read it
as follows:

int handle;
handle=open(name);
if (handle<0) { cout<<"ERROR!"; exit(1); }

Clear so far? I hope so, as this was just the opening of the file.

I read it like this:

int variable;
read(handle, variable, sizeof(int));

OK?

My Problem now is that I need to change my position in the file (normally I
use fseek or such a kind but here it doesn't work).
What can I do to change my position?

I really NEED help fast!
