Details
When the file is (re)opened with the romfile.open method, the pointer is reset to the first character of the file (position 1), except when the file is not found or contains no data, in which case the pointer will permanently be equal to 0. Pointer position cannot exceed file size (see the romfile.size property). When you read from the file using the romfile.getdata method the pointer is automatically moved forward by the number of characters that have been read out.
