Still the state and the functions that operate on them can be separated out. Right? No reason why the state and the functions need to be tied together inside a class.

Are you suggesting everything that currently takes a file-loke object "f" instead takes "fstate" "fread" "fwrite" "fclose" "fflush"...?
