Your solution seems to me to heavy because I have hundred of writes in my code!!

In priniciple, you could generalize jwm's example to any number of
units/files, but isolate the multiple WRITE's to a subroutine you've
written, e.g., MY_WRITE, and then replace all the WRITE's with
MY_WRITE's in your code. Unfortunately in practice, that may be
quite difficult because of needing to pass a variable number of
arguments to MY_WRITE. Only if the number of different combinations
of format, argument number and argument types is fairly small would
this be feasible (presumably be using a generic feature to overload
the finite number of different versions...).
