All classes in the CGAL kernel provide input and output operators for I/O streams. The basic task of such an operator is to produce a representation of an object that can be written as a sequence of characters on devices as a console, a file, or a pipe. In CGAL we distinguish between a raw ASCII, a raw binary and a pretty printing format.

All classes in the CGAL kernel provide input and output operators for I/O streams. CGAL provides three different printing mode, defined in the enum IO::Mode , as well as different functions to set and get the printing mode.

Classes
class	CGAL::IO::Color
	An object of the class Color is a color available for drawing operations in many CGAL output streams. More...
class	CGAL::Output_rep< T, F >
	The purpose of Output_rep is to provide a way to control output formatting that works independently of the object's stream output operator. More...
class	CGAL::Input_rep< T >
	The definition of Input_rep is completely symmetric to Output_rep. More...
class	CGAL::Istream_iterator< T, Stream >
	The class Istream_iterator is an input iterator adaptor for the input stream class Stream and value type T. More...
class	CGAL::Ostream_iterator< T, Stream >
	The class Ostream_iterator is an output iterator adaptor for the output stream class Stream and value type T. More...
class	CGAL::Verbose_ostream
	The class Verbose_ostream can be used as an output stream. More...

Functions
template<class T>
Output_rep< T >	CGAL::IO::oformat (const T &t)
	Convenience function to construct an output representation (Output_rep) for type T.
template<class T, class F>
Output_rep< T, F >	CGAL::IO::oformat (const T &t, F format)
	Convenience function to construct an output representation (Output_rep) for type T.
template<class T>
Input_rep< T >	CGAL::IO::iformat (T &t)
	The definition of this function is completely symmetric to oformat().
Mode	CGAL::IO::get_mode (std::ios &s)
	returns the printing mode of the IO stream s.

	sets the mode of the IO stream s to be the BINARY mode.
Mode	CGAL::IO::set_pretty_mode (std::ios &s)
	sets the mode of the IO stream s to be the PRETTY mode.
Mode	CGAL::IO::set_mode (std::ios &s, Mode m)
	sets the printing mode of the IO stream s.
bool	CGAL::IO::is_pretty (std::ios &s)
	checks if the IO stream s is in PRETTY mode.
bool	CGAL::IO::is_ascii (std::ios &s)
	checks if the IO stream s is in ASCII mode.
bool	CGAL::IO::is_binary (std::ios &s)
	checks if the IO stream s is in BINARY mode.
