This action reads a resource file and returns its content.

The term "resource file" refers to a file that is considered part of the application's model (and hence stored in the "models" folder of the Tersus project). A typical usage would be to save a template file which is later read by the application.

To read the content of a resource file as a buffer of ASCII characters, use Read File.

To read the content of an arbitrary file at runtime (also as a binary stream of data), use Read Resource.

To allow the user to read the content of an arbitrary file at runtime, use the File Input Field display element.
