And I'm not sure if hPutBufNonBlocking and hGetBufNonBlocking can be implemented on top of stdio. I've implemented the java.io package for my previous company, and we had to switch to file descriptors to get the required (non-)blocking behaviour. Perhaps we have to abandon stdio in Hugs at some point, too... Cheers, S.
