I don't think so; there is no name for the files. The program is given the
handles at start-up.

Janus/Ada provides some built-in names to access them ("STI:", "STO:", and
"ERR:"), a feature carried over from our MS-DOS compilers. But this is
implemented completely in the Janus/Ada runtime (it just binds the files to
the appropriate handles). I don't think that there is any portable way to do
it. (But I didn't think there was any on Unix systems, either.)
