I've used streams with no problem:

	OpenStream(handle,"foobar.doc",READ,reply);

	However, the same thing done with the printer acts weirdly:
		
		OpenStream(handle,"PRN:",READWRITE,reply);
		(* reply is -3 - "unknown command" *)
	
Having posted a glowing review of TDI Modula-2, I am now starting to find
a few bugs. When I have a complete list, I will post a follow-up.
