Oh, and there is another good reason to prefer text_io: if you Put a 'image on a fixed line length file, the number (actually the string representing it) can be wrapped in the middle. If you use a put for your type and the line is not long enough to hold it, you'll get a clean New_Line and the number will appear (in full) on the next line. -- --------------------------------------------------------- J-P.
