PROCEDURE Read ( infile : File; VAR ch : UNICHAR );
(* Reads a UNICHAR value from stream infile
   - any leading whitespace is skipped
   - the character being read is removed from infile
   - the code point of the character value read is assigned to ch
   - the file status is set to any of:
     success, outOfRange, wrongFormat, endOfLine, or endOfInput. This
   procedure is substituted for invocations of READ with a UNICHAR argument.*)

PROCEDURE Write ( outfile : File; ch : UNICHAR );
(* Writes the textual representation of UNICHAR ch to stream outfile. This
   procedure is substituted for invocations of WRITE with a UNICHAR argument.*)

                   items        : VARIADIC OF UNICHAR );
(* Writes a formatted textual representation of one or more UNICHAR values to
   output stream outfile. The output format is determined by fmtStr. This
