 =item syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR,LENGTH
 
+=item syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR
+
 Attempts to write LENGTH bytes of data from variable SCALAR to the
-specified FILEHANDLE, using the system call write(2).  It bypasses
+specified FILEHANDLE, using the system call write(2).  If LENGTH is
+not specified, writes whole SCALAR. It bypasses
 stdio, so mixing this with reads (other than C<sysread())>, C<print()>,
 C<write()>, C<seek()>, or C<tell()> may cause confusion because stdio usually
 buffers data.  Returns the number of bytes actually written, or C<undef>
