.TH buffer_put 3
.SH NAME
buffer_put \- write binary data to buffer
.SH SYNTAX
.B #include <buffer.h>

int \fBbuffer_put\fP(buffer* \fIb\fR,const char* \fIx\fR,size_t \fIlen\fR);
.SH DESCRIPTION
buffer_put writes \fIlen\fR bytes from \fIx\fR to \fIb\fR.

The difference to buffer_putalign is that, when there isn't enough space
for new data, buffer_put calls buffer_flush before copying any data,
while buffer_putalign fills all available space with data before calling
buffer_flush.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
buffer_put returns 0 if everything was fine, -1 on error (setting
errno).
.SH "SEE ALSO"
buffer_putalign(3), buffer_puts(3), buffer_flush(3), buffer(3)
