Of course, a stream can be a sort of capability. E doesn't quite have  
a solid implementation of E-concurrency-style (non-blocking) streams  
yet, but I have several working experimental versions. In Joe-E I  
expect you could use the existing Java InputStream/OutputStream/ 
Reader/Writer interfaces.
