+; LoadAuxIndexedFile
+; Load a file from inside an indexed file, all at once into auxiliary memory
+;
+; To save disk space, some collections of small, related files (e.g. per-game
+; help files) are merged into a single data file with an associated index file.
+; The index stores the original filename along with an offset (into the merged
+; data file) and a length.
+;
+; Callers are responsible for loading the index file and finding the relevant
+; record within the index. Most callers use okvs_find() for this.
+;
+; in:    stack contains 6 bytes of parameters:
+;          +1 [word] pointer to filename of merged data file
+;          +3 [word] address of load destination
+;          +5 [word] pointer to index record (see note)
