[1X1 [33X[0;0YPreface[133X[101X
[33X[0;0YThe purpose of this package is to allow efficient and flexible input/output
operations from [5XGAP[105X. This is achieved by providing bindings to the low-level
I/O functions in the C-library. On top of this an implementation of buffered
I/O in the [5XGAP[105X language is provided. Further, a framework for serialisation
of arbitrary [5XGAP[105X objects is implemented. Finally, an implementation of the
client side of the HTTP protocol is included in the package.[133X
[33X[0;0YThis package allows to use file based I/O, access to links and file systems,
pipes, sockets, and the UDP and TCP/IP protocols.[133X
[33X[0;0YBy default the [5XIO[105X package is not automatically loaded by [5XGAP[105X when it is
installed. You must load the package with [10XLoadPackage("IO");[110X before its
functions become available.[133X

tracker ([7Xhttps://github.com/gap-packages/io/issues[107X).[133X
