The point about a "chapter" was just an answer to my question raised before DoDi mentioned his source (at that point in time it wasn't clear if he used the PDF documentation or what other source he meant when referring to "file handling functions" not providing helpful information for him). The whole RTL documentation is available as one file for all of PDF, CHM and INF so this shouldn't make any difference, but I wasn't sure originally whether he was referring to the RTL reference (which obviously includes documentation for all the mentioned tasks), or possibly some other document (since there are references to file handling in other documents too, but obviously not providing anything like a complete overview).
