/*  FUNCTION
	Write some data to a given file. The request is directly
	given to the filesystem - no buffering is involved. For
	small amounts of data it's probably better to use the
	buffered I/O routines.

    INPUTS
	file   - filehandle
	buffer - pointer to data buffer
	length - number of bytes to write. The filesystem is
		 advised to try to fulfill the request as good
		 as possible.

    RESULT
	The number of bytes actually written, -1 if an error happened.
	IoErr() will give additional information in that case.
