write: write to a file

SYNOPSIS

int write(int fd, const void *buf, size_t nbyte);

DESCRIPTION

This system call implements the POSIX write function, which writes nbyte bytes of data from buf into file descriptor fd.

Note that you cannot write to an embedded file (a file attached to the MOSS executable).

PARAMETERS

fd

The file descriptor to write from.

buf

The buffer to write data from.

nbyte

The total number of bytes to write.

RETURN VALUE

Returns the actual number of bytes written if successful, or -1 on error, in which case errno indicates the error.
