I'm always interested in learning how people would do things differently
if they were given a second chance.
So, what do you dislike about Text_IO and what design changes would you
make if given a second chance ?
In a modified Ada, do you still see a role for Text_IO as it stands
(with additional I/O package(s) implementing your desired changes) or do
you think Text_IO should be outright replaced ?
Thanks,
Simon.
