Args
File: file to read
Returns
the contents of the file.
This can be useful when interacting with external applications that generate output in a text file. For example, you might have an external program that mimics conversation:
mob/oracle/verb/tell(T as text)
text2file(T,"talk.in")
shell("talk < talk.in > talk.out")
usr << file2text("talk.out")
