Name

write_buffer() - write a buffer to a file

Synopsis

int write_buffer( mixed dest, int start, mixed source );

Description

If `dest' is a file, then `source' must be an int (and will be written to the file in network-byte-order), a buffer, or a string, and `source' will be written to the file `dest' starting at byte # `start'.

If `dest' is a buffer, then `source' will be written into the buffer starting at byte # `start' in the buffer. If `source' is an int, it will be written in network-byte-order.
