NAME
       buffer_put - write binary data to buffer

SYNTAX
       #include <buffer.h>

       int buffer_put(buffer* b,const char* x,size_t len);

DESCRIPTION
       buffer_put writes len bytes from x to b.

       The  difference	to  buffer_putalign  is that, when there isn't enough space for new data, buffer_put calls buffer_flush before copying any
       data, while buffer_putalign fills all available space with data before calling buffer_flush.

RETURN VALUE
       buffer_put returns 0 if everything was fine, -1 on error (setting errno).
