== Description

Write to this stream the one‐byte type indicator for a seven‐byte integer and the seven‐byte, two's complement integer (in network byte order) comprised of the least‐significant seven bytes of the specified `value` (in host byte order), and return a reference to this stream. If this stream is initially invalid, this operation has no effect. If the next output operation has been set to be marked invalid (see `makeNextInvalid`), reset this marking and emit the invalid indicator instead of the type indicator.

== Return Value

a reference to this stream
