Print.h and Print.cpp usefulness

[imranahmed]

Please let me know that I am some changing in Print.h and Print.cpp, make another files

name SevSEG.h and SevSEG.cpp for displaying values on 3 digit 7-segment display by using

print function with Arduino UNO.

But some errors during compiling like Test:19: error: cannot declare variable 'Ss' to be of abstract type 'SevSEG'
E:\Arduino IDE\arduino-1.0.6\libraries\SevSEG/SevSEG.h:36: note: because the following virtual functions are pure within 'SevSEG':
E:\Arduino IDE\arduino-1.0.6\libraries\SevSEG/SevSEG.h:44: note: virtual size_t SevSEG::write(uint8_t).

but what can I do for fix this problem or how to make it proper?
