That's great news if the job is, in fact, already done. There are some text file IO modules, but where are the console modules?
If they are there, you should put them in a separate I/O subsystem, rename them, and properly describe them, so they can be found. If they are in there, I don't think many people are going to find them, mixed with a lot of student problems.
There are some other modules for console IO. I don't remember the details, but they tend to have serious disadvantages, such as crashing.
