write(1) (MLX Addendum)            (MLX)            write(1) (MLX Addendum)

NAME
     write - write to another user (MLX addendum)

SYNOPSIS
     write user [line]

DESCRIPTION
     (International Functions)

     write can send characters from supplementary code sets.

     Supplementary characters from code sets which do not match between the
     sender and receiver are ignored.

NOTE
     In order to send a supplementary character, write requires the
     sender's width for that character's code set (determined by getwidth()
     from the LC_CTYPE table for the current locale) to match the
     receiver's width for the corresponding code set (according to the line
     discipline used by the receiving terminal).

SEE ALSO
     environ(1), eucset(1), wall(1M), getwidth(3W), eucioctl(5).
