open_message_stream(from_addr, *to_addrs) public

Opens a message writer stream and gives it to the block. The stream is valid only in the block, and has these methods:

puts(str = ’’):outputs STR and CR LF.
print(str):outputs STR.
printf(fmt, *args):outputs sprintf(fmt,*args).
write(str):outputs STR and returns the length of written bytes.
<<(str):outputs STR and returns self.

If a single CR ("\r") or LF ("\n") is found in the message, it is converted to the CR LF pair. You cannot send a binary message with this method.
