Read-file-characters

Read an entire file into a character-listp.

Signature

(read-file-characters filename state) 
  → 
(mv errmsg/contents state)

Arguments

filename — Guard (stringp filename).

Returns

errmsg/contents — On success: a character-listp that contains all the characters in the file. On failure, e.g., perhaps filename does not exist, a stringp saying that we failed to open the file.
