# FS_SeekFile

## Syntax

  `#include <nitro/fs.h>`
  `BOOL FS_SeekFile( FSFile *p_file, s32 offset, FSSeekMode origin );`

## Arguments

p_file | Address of the `FSFile` structure.
offset | The number of bytes to move (in a positive direction from the beginning toward the end).
origin | The move base position.

## Return Values

Returns TRUE if the file pointer is moved correctly; FALSE otherwise.

## Description

This moves the file pointer from a base point that is specified by `origin` to a position that is offset by the amount that is specified by `offset`. The origin type is defined by the `FSSeekFileMode` type. If the specified position is before the beginning of the file, the file pointer will move to the beginning. If the specified position is after the end of the file, the file pointer will move to the end.
