<H3><A NAME="M4">DESCRIPTION</A></H3>
|
||
|
|
Flushes any output that has been buffered for <I>channelId</I>.
|
||
|
|
<I>ChannelId</I> must be a channel identifier such as returned by a previous
|
||
|
|
<B><A HREF="../TkCmd/open.htm">open</A></B> or <B><A HREF="../TkCmd/socket.htm">socket</A></B> command, and it must have been opened for writing.
|
||
|
|
If the channel is in blocking mode the command does not return until all the
|
||
|
|
buffered output has been flushed to the channel. If the channel is in
|
||
|
|
nonblocking mode, the command may return before all buffered output has been
|
||
|
|
flushed; the remainder will be flushed in the background as fast as the
|
||
|
|
underlying file or device is able to absorb it.
