puts

Definition: puts(integer fn, object x)
Description: Output, to file or device fn, a single byte (atom) or sequence of bytes. The low order 8-bits of each value is actually sent out. If fn is the screen you will see text characters displayed.
Comments: When you output a sequence of bytes it must not have any (sub)sequences within it. It must be a atoms only (typically ascii codes), or a string.
Example 1:
puts(SCREEN, "Enter your first name: ")
Example 2:
puts(output, 'A')  -- a single byte/character is written to output
See Also: printf, gets, open
puts1(s) is a low-level equivalent of puts(1,s), see builtins\puts1h.e (not an autoinclude) and builtins\VM\puts1.e (an autoinclude).
