Synopsis

fwrite <int> <int | float | string | vector>

fwrite is undoable, queryable, and editable.

The fwrite command writes the data argument in binary format to a file. Strings are written as ascii terminating with a NULL character.
Note that this should not be used for writing to a text file. If you wish to write out a text file, use fprint instead as it does not terminate the written string with a null character. Only use this for binary files.

Return value
