End of Life Ruby 3.2 has reached end of life and gets no more fixes. Switch to Ruby 4.0 →

class method

IO.binwrite

IO.binwrite(command, string, offset = 0) → integer

IO.binwrite(path, string, offset = 0) → integer

static VALUE
rb_io_s_binwrite(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE io)
{
    return io_s_write(argc, argv, io, 1);
}

Behaves like IO.write, except that the stream is opened in binary mode with ASCII-8BIT encoding.

When called from class IO (but not subclasses of IO), this method has potential security vulnerabilities if called with untrusted input; see Command Injection.
