Description

Writes the contents of a buffer to the current position in a file.

FileWrite writes Count bytes to the file given by Handle from the buffer specified by Buffer. Handle is a file handle returned by the FileOpen or FileCreate method.

The return value is the number of bytes actually written, or -1 if an error occurred.

Note: Do not mix routines that take or return file handles with those that use Delphi language file variables (typically seen as var F). To write to a file specified by a Delphi file variable, use Write, Writeln, or BlockWrite instead.
