-- Abstract     :
--       Package FGET manipulates an object which is a text file. Its
-- main purpose is to return characters from this file, allowing one-character
-- look-ahead.  A character which has been obtained from the file via GETC can
-- be returned to the file by an UNGETC, in which case the next GETC will return
-- the same character again.  Additionally, GETC returns ASCII.CR if the end of
-- a text line is reached and ASCII.ETX if the end of the file is reached.
