I think part of the confusion comes from the fact, that with
Modula-2 they tried to allow You to enter a library-hierarchy
at different levels of abstraction.
E.g. You should be able to view a file as
1.) a sequence of bytes with no apparent structure (like UNIX (tm) files)
2.) a sequence of characters
3.) a sequence of floating point numbers.
Apart from the fact, that You can enter this hierarchy at different
levels, this has the added advantage that the module implementing
floating point numbers (3) relies only on the module implementing
characters (2) which in turn relies only on the module implementing
bits (1), which in turn is implementation dependent (probably).

I am using Turbo-Modula-2 on my SB180FX and am quite happy with the
different possiblities to in/output data.

But after all: Nobody's perferct, why should Modula-2 :-)
