I am working through revering my LDSTextFile class to use Stem storage rather than Array

I have the peripheral methods connected to Stem storage. Now...
Was there an enhanced way to read / write text files directly to Stem objects
in ooRexx 5.0.0?
If so, a direction pointer please.
I have checked the reference for the Stem / String / Stream classes, and I am not seeing new
capabilities. I see the Array focused methods.
No, there is no way currently to directly read the content of a file into a
stem.
Oh.... then I seem to have misunderstood the performance comparison I was invited to evaluate. I
thought it was Array vs Stem storage.
The stream's arrayin/arrayout methods allow to read a file's content into an array and to use the
current content of an array to write to a file.
I am suspecting that those arrayin/arrayout methods of the Stream class were the poor performers
back in the ORexx 1.x and 2.x era.
What I understood was that you had an ooRexx program that performed poorely in the past and that you
were not sure whether that problem is still present. Therefore I tried to ask you to test that
program against modern versions of ooRexx to see whether your observation of more than ten, fifteen
years ago would still hold.
If you do not experience any performance problems with interacting with streams/files, then I would
regard this thread to be closeable. This is up to you, of course.
Best regards,
