====Books, channels and files====
The '''TRANSPUT''' is considered to be of '''BOOKS''', '''CHANNELS''' and '''FILES''':

* '''Books''' are made up of pages, lines and characters, and may be backed up by files.
** A specific book can be located by name with a call to <code>match</code>.
* '''CHANNEL'''s correspond to physical devices.  e.g. card punches and printers.
** Three standard channels are distinguished: ''stand in'' channel, ''stand out'' channel, ''stand back'' channel.
* A '''FILE''' is a means of communicating between a program and a book that has been opened via some channel.
** The '''MOOD''' of a file may be read, write, char, bin, and opened.
** transput procedures include: <code>establish, create, open, associate, lock, close, scratch</code>.
** position enquires: <code>char number, line number, page number</code>.
** layout routines include:
***<code>space</code>, <code>backspace</code>, <code>newline</code>, <code>newpage</code>.
***<code>get good line, get good page, get good book</code>, and <code>'''PROC''' set=('''REF''' '''FILE''' f, '''INT''' page,line,char)'''VOID''':</code>
** A file has '''event routines'''. e.g. <code>on logical file end, on physical file end, on page end, on line end, on format end, on value error, on char error</code>.
