In the Turbo Modula-2 written by Borland (but only available for use on
Z80-compatible systems), extensions are available that greatly simplify
the I/O.  As you might expect, it is very Turbo-Pascal-like, with WRITE, READ
etc., which take any data type and a variable number of arguments.

It does make programming a lot simpler, but is definitely non-portable to
any other Modula compiler I know of.  Perhaps other modula enthusiasts
would like to post notes describing their favorite compiler's extensions,
or discuss how portable a given extension may be.
