Operating System Standard Interface. This is an attempt to define a standard
interface for Modula-2 implementations, to enhance portability of code. The
definition modules posted define such an interface. This is a pretty good
idea, in my opinion, since the facilities provided by the underlying system
and the interfaces to these facilities differ greatly from implementation to
implementation (e.g. the IO package).
