Making use of procedure variables to set the sort method is old hat
to most folks.  What I'm trying to figure (can it even be done?) is
a way to allow a procedure to sort different types of records.  Say, for instance, you have several different types of records that happen to have integer values which are meaningful across all the records, but each record type has nothing else in common.  Is there a way to write a generic sort routine?  Or is this too far into object-oriented programming to not be Modula-2?
