+<p>To <dfn id=concept-stream-read for="I/O queue" export>read</dfn> an

+ <li><p>If <var>ioQueue</var> is <a for=list>empty</a>, then wait until its
+ <a for=list>size</a> is at least 1.

+ return <a>end-of-file</a>.
+
+ <li><p>Otherwise, <a for=list>remove</a> the first item in <var>ioQueue</var>
+ and return it.
+</ol>
+
+<p>To read a number <var>number</var> of <a>items</a> from <var>ioQueue</var>,

Here I was trying to take algorithms defined to take "one or more tokens" and split them into two algorithms that took an item and a sequence. But maybe I should try and merge both overloads into one algorithm.
