#### `include_bytes!(path: *char) -> &[u8; _]`
|

|
||||
Attempts to load file from `path` (relative to module) into memory and includes
|
||||
it into the compiled binary directly. Returns a borrow to an array containing
|
||||
bytes from the file. Array length varies depending on the file contents.
