+/* NAME
+/*	timed_write 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/*	write operation with pre-write timeout
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/*	#include <iostuff.h>
+/*
+/*	ssize_t	timed_write(fd, buf, len, timeout, context)
+/*	int	fd;
+/*	const void *buf;
+/*	size_t	len;
+/*	int	timeout;
+/*	void	*context;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/*	timed_write() performs a write() operation when the specified
+/*	descriptor becomes writable within a user-specified deadline.
+/*
+/*	Arguments:
+/* .IP fd
+/*	File descriptor in the range 0..FD_SETSIZE.
+/* .IP buf
+/*	Write buffer pointer.
+/* .IP len
+/*	Write buffer size.
+/* .IP timeout
+/*	The deadline in seconds. If this is <= 0, the deadline feature
+/*	is disabled.
+/* .IP context
+/*	Application context. This parameter is unused. It exists only
+/*	for the sake of VSTREAM compatibility.
+/* DIAGNOSTICS
+/*	When the operation does not complete within the deadline, the
+/*	result value is -1, and errno is set to ETIMEDOUT.
+/*	All other returns are identical to those of a write(2) operation.
+/* LICENSE
+/* .ad
+/* .fi
+/*	The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
