# Example showing file syscalls.
#
# Create a file, open it for writing, write a character to it, close it, open
# it for reading, read a character from it, close it, delete it, and return
# the character read.
#
# To run:
#   $ ./translate_subx 000init.subx apps/ex7.subx
#   $ ./a.elf
# Expected result:
#   $ echo $?
#   97
