"filename" -- name of the output file.
"string" -- the text string to be printed. Can be up to 8192 characters and must be in double quotes.
kval1, kval2, ... (optional) -- The k-rate values to be printed. These are specified in "string" with the standard C value specifier (%f, %d, etc.) in the order given.
fprintks is similar to the printks opcode except it outputs to a file and doesn't have a itime parameter. For more information about output formatting, please look at printks's documentation.
Here is an example of the fprintks opcode. It uses the files fprintks.orc and fprintks.sco.
