-;;; HOW THE STREAM STRUCTURE IS USED:
-;;;
-;;; Many of the slots of the stream structure contain functions
-;;; which are called to perform some operation on the stream. Closed
-;;; streams have #'Closed-Flame in all of their function slots. If
-;;; one side of an I/O or echo stream is closed, the whole stream is
-;;; considered closed. The functions in the operation slots take
-;;; arguments as follows:
-;;;
-;;; In:                        Stream, Eof-Errorp, Eof-Value
-;;; Bin:               Stream, Eof-Errorp, Eof-Value
-;;; N-Bin:             Stream, Buffer, Start, Numbytes, Eof-Errorp
-;;; Out:               Stream, Character
-;;; Bout:              Stream, Integer
-;;; Sout:              Stream, String, Start, End
-;;; Misc:              Stream, Operation, &Optional Arg1, Arg2
-;;;
-;;; In order to save space, some of the less common stream operations
-;;; are handled by just one function, the Misc method. This function
-;;; is passed a keyword which indicates the operation to perform.
-;;; The following keywords are used:
-;;;  :listen           - Return the following values:
-;;;                         t if any input waiting.
-;;;                         :eof if at eof.
-;;;                         nil if no input is available and not at eof.
-;;;  :unread           - Unread the character Arg.
-;;;  :close            - Do any stream specific stuff to close the stream.
-;;;                      The methods are set to closed-flame by the close
-;;;                      function, so that need not be done by this
-;;;                      function.
-;;;  :clear-input      - Clear any unread input
-;;;  :finish-output,
-;;;  :force-output     - Cause output to happen
-;;;  :clear-output     - Clear any undone output
-;;;  :element-type     - Return the type of element the stream deals wit<h.
-;;;  :line-length      - Return the length of a line of output.
-;;;  :charpos          - Return current output position on the line.
-;;;  :file-length      - Return the file length of a file stream.
-;;;  :file-position    - Return or change the current position of a file stream.
-;;;  :file-name                - Return the name of an associated file.
-;;;  :interactive-p     - Is this an interactive device?
-;;;
-;;; In order to do almost anything useful, it is necessary to
-;;; define a new type of structure that includes stream, so that the
-;;; stream can have some state information.
-;;;
-;;; THE STREAM IN-BUFFER:
-;;;
-;;; The In-Buffer in the stream holds characters or bytes that
-;;; are ready to be read by some input function. If there is any
-;;; stuff in the In-Buffer, then the reading function can use it
-;;; without calling any stream method. Any stream may put stuff in
-;;; the In-Buffer, and may also assume that any input in the In-Buffer
-;;; has been consumed before any in-method is called. If a text
-;;; stream has in In-Buffer, then the first character should not be
-;;; used to buffer normal input so that it is free for unreading into.
-;;;
-;;; The In-Buffer slot is a vector In-Buffer-Length long. The
-;;; In-Index is the index in the In-Buffer of the first available
-;;; object. The available objects are thus between In-Index and the
-;;; length of the In-Buffer.
-;;;
-;;; When this buffer is only accessed by the normal stream
-;;; functions, the number of function calls is halved, thus
-;;; potentially doubling the speed of simple operations. If the
-;;; Fast-Read-Char and Fast-Read-Byte macros are used, nearly all
-;;; function call overhead is removed, vastly speeding up these
-;;; important operations.
-;;;
-;;; If a stream does not have an In-Buffer, then the In-Buffer slot
-;;; must be nil, and the In-Index must be In-Buffer-Length. These are
-;;; the default values for the slots.
