Binary.pokeString(3kaya)				       Kaya module reference					  Binary.pokeString(3kaya)

NAME

       Binary::pokeString - Write a String of binary data.

SYNOPSIS

       Void pokeString( var Binary block, Int offset, String val )

ARGUMENTS

       block The binary block

       offset The location to write to (starting from zero)

       val The String to write.

DESCRIPTION

       Poke the string val into the block, starting at offset offset
	An  Binary.OffsetOutOfRange(3kaya) exception will be thrown if it attempts to access a value outside the block. Note that the String will
       be stored in the block in UTF-8 encoding, not as raw Kaya chars, so you need to use Builtins.byteLength(3kaya) to determine how much space
       you need (and then add one for a terminating null byte).
