  You read the manual incorrectly.  FileSystem does support ASCII i/o with
translation.  Ie.  <EOF> is character code 32C.  <CR><LF> becomes ASCII.EOL.
Read the the FileSystem definition module on page 268 of the version 3 manual.
LongIO uses InOut, so that LONGINTs can be redirected to files or console.
SimpleTerm is for raw fast console ie.  It uses DOSCALLS.  If anybody has any
questions about the libraries, I have the source code for them (and probably
so does everybody else).
