Yet another question

OK time for another stupid question from me

.

EXTC COMEXP size_t FWRITE(const void *buffer, size_t size, size_t count, FILE *stream);

WTF does count do?

[edit]
DOH RTFM!!!

I really am asleep today, sorry people

[/edit]

err, like the normal fwrite count, it's the number of times you want to write size from *buffer.

I'm sure either K or R argued STRONGLY for things like that count param... Or the "calloc()" function.

Oh well. Even the best SDKs wind up with vestigal appendages.
