 FT_FDELETE()
 Deletes a line from the currently selected text file
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Syntax


      FT_FDELETE( [ < nLines > ] ) -> lSuccess

 Arguments


     <nLines> is the number of lines to be eliminated, beginning with
     the current record position.

     If <nLines> is omitted, the current record is deleted only.

 Returns


     TRUE if successful, otherwise check ft_fError() for error code.

 Description


     This function deletes one or several lines of text from the file
     in the currently selected text file workarea.  Text lines are
     delimited with a CRLF pair.  The record pointer is not moved,
     unless the deleted lines occur at the end of the file, in which
     case ft_fRecno() will equal ft_fLastRe() and ft_fEOF()
     will be set to TRUE.

 Examples


     // delete the next 4 lines from a file
     FT_FUSE( "test.txt" )

     FT_FDELETE( 4 )
