        !            11: operating systems, external devices can mimic files, in that they

        !            16: This can be done with the  COHERENT system call open, or with the
        !            17: function fopen.   You can then  read the file,  write material to

        !            19: rreeaadd and write, or with  the functions ffrreeaadd and ffwwrriittee.  See the
