/**
  * This is the common superclass of all standard classes that filter 
  * input.  It acts as a layer on top of an underlying <code>Reader</code>
  * and simply redirects calls made to it to the subordinate Reader
  * instead.  Subclasses of this class perform additional filtering
  * functions in addition to simply redirecting the call.
  * <p>
  * When creating a subclass of <code>FilterReader</code>, override the
  * appropriate methods to implement the desired filtering.  However, note
  * that the <code>read(char[])</code> method does not need to be overridden
  * as this class redirects calls to that method to 
  * <code>read(yte[], int, int)</code> instead of to the subordinate
  * <code>Reader} read(yte[])</code> method.
