I must not understand your predicament.  I thought you didn't want to use
global variables -- an externally defined print file still requires you to
use global variables!

I don't understand this statement.   You can use a subprocedure and do it
exactly the same way as you would've done it with a subroutine.  I don't
understand why this is a "subprocedure" vs "subroutine" topic.  Both use
global variables and files in exactly the same way.
