------------------
read filename
read -once filename
This reads definitions from the specified calc resource filename.
The name can be quoted if desired. The calculator uses the
CALCPATH environment variable to search through the specified
directories for the filename, similarly to the use of the
PATH environment variable. If CALCPATH is not defined,
then a default path which is usually ":/usr/local/lib/calc"
is used.
The ".cal" extension is defaulted for input files, so that
if "filename" is not found, then "filename.cal" is then
searched for. The contents of the filename are command
sequences which can consist of expressions to evaluate or
functions to define, just like at the top level command level.

If CALCPATH is not defined, then a default path which is
usually ":/usr/local/lib/calc" is used (that is, the current
directory followed by a general calc library directory).

then searched for. The contents of the filename are

When -once is given, the read command acts like the regular
read expect that it will ignore filename if is has been
previously read.
The read -once form is particularly useful in a resource
file that needs to read a 2nd resource file. By using the
READ -once command, one will not reread that 2nd resource
file, nor will once risk entering into a infinite READ loop
(where that 2nd resource file directly or indirectly does
a READ of the first resource file).
The read -once form is particularly useful in a library that
needs to read a 2nd library. By using the READ -once
command, one will not reread that 2nd library, nor will
once risk entering into a infinite READ loop (where
that 2nd library directly or indirectly does a READ of
the first library).
If the -m mode disallows opening of files for reading,
this command will be disabled.
