  Read from file

Receives:
  int                      *guise          --- class of file:
                                           ---  FFCROL,FFCSNP,FFCJNL,
                                           ---  FFCXMT,FFCXMO,FFCSCH,FFCLNC
  int                      *strid          --- frustrum strid
  int                      *nmax           --- maximum number of chars to read

Returns:
  char                      buffer[]       --- buffer containing read data
  int                      *nactual        --- actual number of characters read
                                           --- equals *nmax except on EOF/error
  int                      *ifail          --- error code: FR_no_errors
                                           ---             FR_read_fail
                                           ---             FR_end_of_file


Description:
  This function reads from file (starting at the current position of the file
  pointer) storing a maximum of *nmax characters or bytes in the given buffer.
  It returns the actual number of characters or bytes read. This is equal
  to the number requested, except when the end of file is reached or if a read
  error occurs. The end of file error is only returned when no bytes are read.
  The file pointer is incremented by the number of characters or bytes read.
  In the case of a rollback file, Parasolid does not require the function to
  read beyond the actsiz limit which has been returned by FFOPRB.
