Reading file for input

Hello, are there any input commands for reading text from a file?

Thanks,

Someone here shared these links:

Read text:

Write text:

This may or may not be useful but is what I used for some testing purposes and and XML.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. import System;
3. import System.IO;
4. import System.Xml;
5.  
6. function Start(){
7.  
8.     var xmlFile = Application.dataPath + "/test.xml";
9.    
10.     if (File.Exists(xmlFile)){
11.        
12.        
13.         var sr = new StreamReader(xmlFile);
14.         var txt = sr.ReadToEnd();
15.        
16.         var xml = new XmlDocument();
17.         xml.LoadXml(txt);
18.        
19.         Debug.Log(xml.FirstChild.ChildNodes.Count);
20.        
21.         for (var i=0;i<xml.FirstChild.ChildNodes.Count;i++){
22.             Debug.Log(xml.FirstChild.ChildNodes[i].NodeType + "  " + xml.FirstChild.ChildNodes[i].OuterXml + "  " + xml.FirstChild.ChildNodes[i].Attributes.Count);
23.         }
24.     }
25. }
26.  

And here is the XML I used for a sample:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. <test>
3.     <some>
4.         <someInfo att='someText'>And Some Crap</someInfo>
5.     </some>
6.  
7.     <another someAtt='anAtt'>
8.         <someInfo>And Some Crap</someInfo>
9.     </another>
10.  
11.     <onemore>
12.         <someInfo att='someText'>And Some Crap</someInfo>
13.     </onemore>
14. </test>
15.  

HTH someone.

Ah great, thank to both of you, I now have the objects in my game all being placed via a 'map file'.

Thanks!

Would you mind sharing a little more information on how you did this? Thanks!
