You got the point exactly enough. I'd like to apply Text_IO procedures to a
Stream (i.e. from GNAT.Sockets).

Found both yesterday, but:
 1) is very implementation dependant.
 2) requires an non portable way to convert GNAT.Sockets.Streams into
    C_Streams.

Exactly. I'm looking f�r CRLF in the stream. Now I wrote a Get_Line myself.
