NAME
    PutDiskObject - write out a diskobject to disk.

SYNOPSIS
    status = PutDiskObject(name, diskobj)
      D0                    A0      A1

    BOOL PutDiskObject(char *, struct diskobject *);

FUNCTION
    This routine writes out a diskobject structure, and its
    associated information.  The file name of the info
    file will be the name parameter with a
    ".info" postpended to it.  If the call fails, a zero will
    be returned.  The reason for the failure may be obtained
    via ioerr().

    As of release V2.0, PutDiskObject (if sucessful) notifies workbench
    han an icon has been created/modified.

    Using this routine protects you from any future changes to
    the way icons are stored within the system.

INPUTS
    name -- name of the object (pointer to a character string)
    diskobj -- a pointer to a diskobject

RESULTS
    status -- TRUE if the call succeeded else FALSE

NOTES
    It is recommended that if you wish to copy an icon from one place
    to another than you use getdiskobject() and putdiskobject()
    and do not copy them directly.
