The docs state that when using a #read directive into an already #declare'd
variable, POV will perform type checking. I.e. I read that to mean that the
following shouldn't work:
-----------------------------------------------
#declare MyString="Hi mom!"
#fopen f "MyFile.txt" read
#read (f,MyString)
-----------------------------------------------
if Myfile.txt contains the text "<1,1,1>" (with no quotes)
But it does. Is this a bug, or something I'm doing wrong?

Can't verify this currently but perhaps this is connected with type checking
when array entry is readed since you can't have different types in one array ?
