*/bset [-tacz] <&binvar> <N> <asciivalue> [asciivalue ... asciivalue]*

Sets the <N>th byte in binary variable &binvar to the specified ascii value.

_If N = -1, the data is added to the end of the variable._

If the &binvar docent exists it is created.

If <N> is larger than the size of &binvar it will be zero filled up to <N> bytes.

If you specify multiple "ASCII":http://www.asciitable.com/ values, they are copied to successive positions after byte position N.

*Switches*

-t - Treat values a plain text.

-a - Disables UTF-8 encoding of characters in the range 0-255, as long as the text contains no characters > 255.

-c - Chops the &binvar at the end of the copied bytes.

-z - Creates new or truncates existing &binvar at zero length.

*Parameters*

<&binvar> - The &binvar to modify.

<N> - The byte to modify. (one based)

<asciivalue> - The "ASCII":http://www.asciitable.com/ value to insert.

*Example*
