But for the fileout format in particular, this should surely  be a
message send.  I don't know who it should be sent to, unfortunately.  It
should eventually get sent to the TextFile that is doing the loading.

Perhaps the simple:

	fileInStream encoding: 'mac-roman' !


There's no real reason that fileouts shouln't have a few predefined
variables.
