Shell Commands/FileWrite

FileWrite - Writes data to a file

FILE/A, SIZE/N/A, DATA/N, STRING, ADD/S

FILE   - Filename to write data to
SIZE   - Amount of data in bytes to be written
DATA   - Data to be written in hex
STRING - Data in the string format
ADD    - Adds data to an existing file instead of creating a new file

If the length of data is shorter than the size value, the file is filled by repeating the data contents. Strings get separated by null bytes then. Data entered in decimals gets converted to hex. If no data is given, the file is filled with null bytes.

Examples:
