$writefile(xVariable[,iStartPos])
Writes data to the open file associated with the object. Binary xVariable contains the data to write to the file. Returns kTrue for success.
You are recommended to use $writecharacter() to write character data, otherwise you may get unexpected results.
By default, $writefile() writes the data starting at the current position. You can specify an alternative position using the iStartPos parameter.
$writefile() returns a boolean value, which is true if the data was successfully written. After writing the data, the current position addresses the byte after the last byte written, or end of file.
