Thanks...
I might do both in the end. I already have the file I/O interface
working, although it needs some more polishing. The most annoying detail
being that blocking of reads if you've done a write and vice versa in
the standard C I/O routines. I have a workaround, but it is ugly...
Interfacing from other languages are much easier.
