> Does anyone know how to get the size of a file in DJGPP?
Example:


FILE *f;
long size;

f = fopen("filename.huh", "rb");
if (!f)
    return -1;
size = filelength(fileno(f));
fclose(f);
return size;


If you going to read from the file, you may want to keep it open. Just an
example. If "size" is -1, and error occurred.
