This answer is a bit outdated buy may explain some things:

puts() as it name says is designed to output *strings*. The function will
only output the
lower 8 bits of any number. Try this:

sequence message
message = "Euphoria!"
? message
puts(1, message)
message = or_bits(message, 512)
? message
puts(1, message)

So for binary data the best is to use print(fn,...) and getc(fn).
