 Name:         »file write« - Write to a specified file.

 Opcode:       64

 Syntax:       int32_t Fwrite ( int16_t handle, int32_t count, void 
               *buf );

 Description:  The GEMDOS routine Fwrite writes a given number of 
               bytes to a specified GEMDOS file. The following apply:

                Parameter  Meaning

                handle     File handle identifier
                count      Number of bytes to be written
                buf        Start address of the buffer

               Note about MagiC: If one passes the value 0 for the 
               number of bytes to be written, and the value -1 in buf, 
               then the file will be truncated to the current position 
               of the file pointer.

 Return value: The function returns the number of bytes actually 
               written, or one of the following error-messages:

                EACCDN :   Access denied
                EIHNDL :   Invalid file handle
                ELOCKED :  File segment is marked as protected

 Availability: All GEMDOS versions.
