How come that "Every writer is a monitor" is stated in the description of the Wr interface [System Programming with M3, p132], but that we are just told TYPE T <: ROOT and have no access to this monitor from the Wr interface ? Suppose that I have a Wr.T and I want to print the two texts t1 and t2 on it, and be sure that t1 and t2 are one just after the other in the writer. I would like to avoid Wr.PutText (wr, t1 & t2) as this can be expensive. How I am supposed to do that ? It is ok to import WrClass and to WrClass.Lock (wr) ? -- Eric.
