FIL

The FIL structure (file object) holds state of an open file. It is created by f_open() function and discarded by f_close() function. Application program must not modify any member in this structure except for cltbl. Note that a sector buffer is defined in this structure at non-tiny configuration, so that the FIL structures should not be defined as auto variable.
