Set stream position.

## Declaration

## Description

Seek sets the position to Pos. This position is counted from the beginning, and is zero based. (i.e. seek(0) sets the position pointer on the first byte of the stream)

For an example, see TDosStream.Seek.

## Errors

If Pos is larger than the stream size, Status is set to StSeekError.
