i can see from their documentation, that i have been using my time quite
a bit more effectively:

	"Menuet has no roots within UNIX or the POSIX standards,
	nor is it based on any particular operating system. The design
	goal has been to remove the extra layers between different parts
	of an OS, which normally complicate programming and create bugs.

here's their write system call:

              rbx - 1 Write

                rcx - Ignored
                rdx - Bytes to save
                rex - Pointer to data
                rfx - Filename pointer
