SendMessage() for saving text file

[Sn]

Does anyone know how to use the SendMessage() function to save a text
file in UTF-8 format. what are the Msg, Wparam and the lParam
parameters passed to the function?

There is no SendMessage() function defined in ISO standard C. Judging by
the bastardised Hungarian notation -lookalike, you probably want
comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.{misc,win32}.

I would expect that fopen(), fwrite(), and fclose() would serve
better for writing files. This is especially true because
standard C does not have a SendMessage() function.

The function 'SendMessage()', and the types 'MSG', 'WPARAM',
and 'LPARAM' are part of the Microsoft Windows API, and
are not part of the C language or its standard library.

<OT>
In any event, even with Windows, 'SendMessage()' has
nothing to do with file i/o. It's for communicating
with windows (via 'window handles').

Ask about the Windows API in group comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32
