Inherits

- `Netchannels.rec_in_channel`

    method pos_in : int

Returns the current channel position. This position can be expected to be consistent with the returned number of bytes of `input`, i.e. when `input` returns `n`, the position is advanced by `n`.

As seek operations are outside the scope of `Netchannels`, implementations may or may not take seek operations into account.
