This last solution seems to be more ellegant, however, you'd need to add in any part the special options for any stream, for exmple:

OPEN CompressedFile "/home/benoit/source.gz" FOR CREATE AS hFile USING PARAMS "compression=9"

or, in HttpClient:

OPEN HttpClient "http://www.binara.com" FOR READ AS hFile USING PARAMS "POSTMETHOD"

or

OPEN HttpClient "http://www.binara.com" FOR READ AS hFile USING PARAMS "GETMETHOD"


that paremeters should be passed to the object, so it can interpeter these options
