_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Store a new value into a variable in the workspace from a file.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     ## S4 method for signature 'netWorkSpace':
     nwsStoreFile(.Object, xName, fObj, n=0)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

 .Object: a netWorkSpace class object

   xName: name of the variable to be stored

    fObj: file to read data from to store in the variable.

       n: Number of bytes to write.  A value of zero means to write all
          the data in the file.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     nwsStoreFile works like nwsStore, except that the value to store
     in the workspace variable comes from a file. If 'fObj' is a
     character string, nwsStoreFile calls 'file' to obtain a file
     connection which is opened for the duration of the method.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     'nwsStore'

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

     ## Not run: 
     ws <- netWorkSpace('nws example')
     nwsStoreFile(ws, 'x', '/etc/printcap')
     ## End(Not run)
