OK, thanks.  That gives me some perspective.  I need to read Streams 
in Oberon and in A2 again and review use in Mail again.

In the Oberon subsystem of UnixAos, I encountered a limit on the 
number of executions of Files.Old().  According to memory, enough 
executions froze the system.  Appeared that the limitation came from 
Linux. Each execution created a temporary file until a limit was 
struck?

That motivates my interest in the use of Files in Streams.

Understanding software (or any technology) retrospectively can be a 
challenge.

Thx,                             ... P.
