So that is my code (no comments, they were in french)

void func()
{
   FILE *Fcarte;
   long int pos;       //   Position
   char Charou;      //   The character, converted in char
   int ICharou;      //      The original character

   Fcarte=fopen(carte, "r");
   if (Fcarte==NULL)
   {
       printf("Impossible d'ouvrir de fichier bsp.\n");
       return;
   }

while(1)
       {
       pos = ftell(Fcarte);                               //      
_________________Nb 1
       ICharou=fgetc(Fcarte);
           /*         if (ICharou==EOF)               // Here were there 
an EOF test : I removed it, it did bug a lot (?)
                       break;            */

       Charou=(char) ICharou;
                                                                  /*  
[stuff, using Charou...] */

       fseek(Fcarte, pos+1, SEEK_SET);        //      _________________Nb 2
      }

}

before adding Nb1 and Nb2, it worked too buggly (?). thereafter, it 
works too slowly (normal).

Hoping you will help, Thankssssss
