  Description
 
    The TextRec type makes available the internal definition of a
    file of type Text.
 
    To examine the fields for a particular file, typecast the file
    variable associated with the file to the type TextRec.
 
    The Name field is a null-terminated string. To examine Name, assign
    it to a variable of type CSTRING.
