Question: I learnt at the @serialize in JSFX the file_var always starts with file_var(0 the zero 0 can never be any other number, right? I thought the next file_var will be (1 but saw online that it should always be 0. Is it correct?

    0 is a special file handle used during @serialize. file_open() etc will never return 0. In theory you could also call file_open() during @serialize to get another handle, but it's probably not a good idea.
