EXPORT QUALIFIED Read, KeyPressed, ReadAgain, ReadString,
Write, WriteString, WriteLn;
PROCEDURE Read (VAR ch: CHAR);
(*- Read a character from the terminal.

If terminal output has not been redirected, the following
interpretations are made:
System.EOL (36C) = go to beginning of next line
ASCII.ff (14C) = clear screen and set cursor home
ASCII.del (177C) = erase the last character on the left
ASCII.bs (10C) = move 1 character to the left
ASCII.cr (15C) = go to beginning of current line
ASCII.lf (12C) = move 1 line down, same column
*)
PROCEDURE WriteString (string: ARRAY OF CHAR);
