NAME
    Close -- Close an open file

SYNOPSIS
    success = Close( file )
       D0             D1

    BOOL Close(BPTR)

FUNCTION
    The file specified by the file handle is closed. You must close all
    files you explicitly opened, but you must not close inherited file
    handles that are passed to you (each filehandle must be closed once
    and ONLY once).  If Close() fails, the file handle is still
    deallocated and should not be used.

INPUTS
    file - BCPL pointer to a file handle

RESULTS
    success - returns if Close() succeeded.  Note that it might fail
              depending on buffering and whatever IO must be done to
              close a file being written to.  NOTE: this return value
              did not exist before V36!
