FILEWRITE(3)

filewrite(3) 💅

okay bestie, this little icon is from Schily’s LIBRARY FUNCTIONS and it’s literally the “put bytes into a file” girlie. ✨

NAME 🌸

filewrite() — writes into file. no cap.

SYNOPSIS 🦋

int filewrite(f,buf,size)
FILE *f;
char *buf;
int size;

DESCRIPTION 💖

filewrite() writes the size bytes starting at buf into the file. The file must be open for writing — like, non-negotiable, bestie. 🔥

RETURNS ✨

• >= 0 — the number of bytes written. slay.
• < 0 — error code. 😭

NOTES 💅

• The process suspends if any of the error conditions are not handled. yes, literally pauses.
• Writing anywhere in the file is allowed. go off, main character.
• When writing to "raw" devices the size must be multiples of 512. periodt.
