BufferedOutput( output, size )

Implements: OutputStream

Buffered output is an output stream that will hold the outputs passed to it until it reaches a certain size, at which the outputs will be written to the provided output stream. This can be used, for example, to collect a bunch of log entries and write them all at once. If size is 0, the buffer will not be emptied until write_to_output is called. If output is not an OutputStream or size is not a number, InvalidArgumentType will be thrown.

var _output	= new BufferedOutput( new TextFile().open( "log.txt", FAST_FILE_OPEN_NEW ), 10 );

var _i = 0; repeat( 18 ) { _output.write( _i++, "\n" ); }

Output: 0-9 will be written to the text file, and 10-17 will remain in the buffer until more entries are buffered or the output is closed
