 Returns an int for how many bytes were read. If more bytes

<DD>Write a String to the output. Note that this doesn't account
 for Unicode (two bytes per char), nor will it send UTF8
 characters.. It assumes that you mean to send a byte buffer
 (most often the case for networking and serial i/o) and
 will only use the bottom 8 bits of each char in the string.
 (Meaning that internally it uses String.getBytes)

 If you want to move Unicode data, you can first convert the
 String to a byte stream in the representation of your choice
