R_IO takes float but not a string.

I would have done this: (I only know Ada95 though)

Text_IO.Put(Num);
R_IO.Put(FNUM);

Or I would have done:

Text_IO.Put(Num & Float'Image(FNUM))

NB: Note that I only know some Ada95, so if this doesn't work with
Ada83 it is me that is wrong not the compiler :-)
