Hi, how about

\pdfinput {filename} 
\pdfopenin {filename} 
\pdfopenout {filename}
Hi,
if you provide new primitives, it would be nice to have a switch which
forces \pdfopenout to create a file with the name <filename>.
It's quite annoying that `\openout\x=Makefile' creates a file
`Makefile.tex'.
how about instead of a switch an extra:

\pdfopenoutfile {filename}

that does not add the suffix; that way one can also say:

\let\pdfopenout\pdfopenoutfile

in order to loose the auto .tex appending
