This function returns the value 1 (true) if the the medium on which the specified file or directory is located (or to which the specified channel is open) is write-protected either through hardware or software control. If no parameter is specified, it looks to channel #3 (or #1 if #3 is not open). If the medium can be written to, the value returned is zero.
