  17. While looking over the procedure files for Icon, and the documentation
  18. available via the Univ. of Arizona's Icon WWW page, I haven't seen
  19. anything pertaining to file locking thus far.  (yes, I know, I should
  20. have ordered the Icon programming book, which I plan to do).
  21.  
  22. Am I going to need to implement file locking using C code for my
  23. programs, to be called by Icon programs, or am I overlooking something?
