To establish a channel with such a device there is a special standard procedure:<pre>
PROC establish = (REF FILE file, STRING idf, CHANNEL chan, INT p, l, c) INT: ~ </pre>
Where the <code>idf</code> string is text describing which device to open, and possibly options.
options. And <code>chan</code> is the actual device type. Standard CHANNELCHANNELs in ALGOL 68 are <code>stand in chan</code>,
ALGOL 68 are <code>stand outin chan</code>, and <code>stand backout chan</code>., and Site would be expected to implement their<code>stand own
