Exit Parameters
- If OK:
- Carry true
- A corrupt
- DE corrupt
- Otherwise:
- Carry false
- A = Error code
- DE = Number of bytes remaining unwritten

- BC HL IX corrupt, all other registers preserved.
The value of C is only used when HL is within the upper 16K of memory (0xC000…0xFFFF). If HL is in this range then C is the RAM bank to use. For most purposes C should be set to 0 which is the default RAM bank mapped to that region.
