  * This class prints Java primitive values and objects to a stream as
  * text.  None of the methods in this class throw an exception.  However,
  * errors can be detected by calling the <code>checkError()</code> method.
  * Additionally, this stream can be designated as "autoflush" when 
  * created so that any writes are automatically flushed to the underlying
  * output sink whenever one of the <code>println</code> methods is
  * called.  (Note that this differs from the <code>PrintStream</code>
  * class which also auto-flushes when it encounters a newline character
  * in the chars written).
