You just want to read the first ASCII character in a text file?

Code:

#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

char getfirstcharfromfile()
{
	ifstream thefilestream;
	thefilestream.open ("thefilename.txt");
	char *output;
	thefilestream >> output;
	return output[0];
}

}

I should correct myself. I was a little tired when I wrote this.

Code:

#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

char getfirstcharfromfile()
{
	ifstream thefilestream("thefilename.txt");
        char out = thefilestream.get();
        thefilestream.close();
	return out;
}

Code:

ifstream f;
f.open("freedompeace.txt");
f >> buf;

/* Make sure you have all of them

void DrawFileText( LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice, const char *dir, D3DCOLOR TextColor, float x, float y )
{
	if( !pDevice )
		return;

	char txt[255];
	std::ifstream inFile( dir );
    if ( !inFile )
    {
		this->PrintText( x, y, TextColor, "While opening a file an error was encountered!" );
	}
	inFile.getline( txt, 255 );
	std::cout<<txt;
	this->PrintText( x, y, TextColor, txt );
}
