+/**
+ * assuan_send_data:
+ * @ctx: An assuan context
+ * @buffer: Data to send or NULL to flush
+ * @length: length of the data to send/
+ * 
+ * This function may be used by the server or the client to send data
+ * lines.  The data will be escaped as required by the Assuan protocol
+ * and may get buffered until a line is full.  To force sending the
+ * data out @buffer may be passed as NULL (in which case @length must
+ * also be 0); however when used by a client this flush operation does
+ * also send the terminating "END" command to terminate the reponse on
+ * a INQUIRE response.  However, when assuan_transact() is used, this
+ * function takes care of sending END itself.
+ * 
+ * Return value: 0 on success or an error code
