<<There is nothing wrong with having a straight-forward way to take this
logical bit-at-a-time output concept and showing how to do it efficiently
in Ada-95. Unfortunately, it appears, that you must write your own
buffering scheme in a non-portable manner, to do this. If anyone has
ideas how to do this portably, I am interested.>>
I can't understand why you think that this particular task should involve
non-portable constructs -- you must have some approach in mind that is
not apparent. Can you elaborate? It seems perfectly straightforward to
use stream_io, assembling bits into storage elements in a portable manner.
