Since it terminates on various characters, the input# BASIC function is not
usable in the case where a REL record contains random binary data.  To speed
things up, is there a way to do a bulk read of given size from assembly
language that does not incur a TALK/UNTALK cycle for every byte?  In my
application it's guaranteed that all records will be completely filled
(Super OS-9 container file w/ 129-byte records).
