21 /* If you think about replacing this with some similar standard C function of
22 the printf family (such as vsnprintf), please note that this function
23 supports the following Emacs-specific features:
25 . For %c conversions, it produces a string with the multibyte representation
26 of the (`int') argument, suitable for display in an Emacs buffer.
28 . For %s and %c, when field width is specified (e.g., %25s), it accounts for
29 the diplay width of each character, according to char-width-table. That
30 is, it does not assume that each character takes one column on display.
32 . If the size of the buffer is not enough to produce the formatted string in
33 its entirety, it makes sure that truncation does not chop the last
34 character in the middle of its multibyte sequence, producing an invalid
37 . It accepts a pointer to the end of the format string, so the format string
38 could include embedded null characters.
40 . It signals an error if the length of the formatted string is about to
41 overflow MOST_POSITIVE_FIXNUM, to avoid producing strings longer than what
44 OTOH, this function supports only a small subset of the standard C formatted
45 output facilities. E.g., %u and %ll are not supported, and precision is
46 ignored %s and %c conversions. (See below for the detailed documentation of
47 what is supported.) However, this is okay, as this function is supposed to
48 be called from `error' and similar functions, and thus does not need to
49 support features beyond those in `Fformat', which is used by `error' on the
52 /* This function supports the following %-sequences in the `format'
55 %s means print a string argument.
56 %S is silently treated as %s, for loose compatibility with `Fformat'.
57 %d means print a `signed int' argument in decimal.
58 %l means print a `long int' argument in decimal.
59 %o means print an `unsigned int' argument in octal.
60 %x means print an `unsigned int' argument in hex.
61 %e means print a `double' argument in exponential notation.
62 %f means print a `double' argument in decimal-point notation.
63 %g means print a `double' argument in exponential notation
64 or in decimal-point notation, whichever uses fewer characters.
65 %c means print a `signed int' argument as a single character.
66 %% means produce a literal % character.
68 A %-sequence may contain optional flag, width, and precision specifiers, as
71 %<flags><width><precision>character
73 where flags is [+ -0l], width is [0-9]+, and precision is .[0-9]+
75 The + flag character inserts a + before any positive number, while a space
76 inserts a space before any positive number; these flags only affect %d, %l,
77 %o, %x, %e, %f, and %g sequences. The - and 0 flags affect the width
78 specifier, as described below.
80 The l (lower-case letter ell) flag is a `long' data type modifier: it is
81 supported for %d, %o, and %x conversions of integral arguments, and means
82 that the respective argument is to be treated as `long int' or `unsigned
83 long int'. The EMACS_INT data type should use this modifier.
85 The width specifier supplies a lower limit for the length of the printed
86 representation. The padding, if any, normally goes on the left, but it goes
87 on the right if the - flag is present. The padding character is normally a
88 space, but (for numerical arguments only) it is 0 if the 0 flag is present.
89 The - flag takes precedence over the 0 flag.
91 For %e, %f, and %g sequences, the number after the "." in the precision
92 specifier says how many decimal places to show; if zero, the decimal point
93 itself is omitted. For %s and %S, the precision specifier is ignored. */
