Gambas is not Visual Basic, and its file handles are not integers. They are 
File objects ! So you must write :

   DIM sFilnam AS String
   DIM sLine AS String
   DIM hUnit AS File

   sFilnam = "CONFIG.lingx"
   OPEN sFilnam FOR READ AS #hUnit

   WHILE NOT Eof(hUnit)
    LINE INPUT #hUnit, sLine
    PRINT sLine
   WEND
