11 * A bombproof version of doprnt (dopr) included.
12 * Sigh. This sort of thing is always nasty do deal with. Note that
13 * the version here does not include floating point...
15 * snprintf() is used instead of sprintf() as it does limit checks
16 * for string length. This covers a nasty loophole.
18 * The other functions are there to prevent NULL pointers from
19 * causing nast effects.
22 * Brandon Long <blong@fiction.net> 9/15/96 for mutt 0.43
23 * This was ugly. It is still ugly. I opted out of floating point
24 * numbers, but the formatter understands just about everything
25 * from the normal C string format, at least as far as I can tell from
26 * the Solaris 2.5 printf(3S) man page.
28 * Brandon Long <blong@fiction.net> 10/22/97 for mutt 0.87.1
29 * Ok, added some minimal floating point support, which means this
30 * probably requires libm on most operating systems. Don't yet
31 * support the exponent (e,E) and sigfig (g,G). Also, fmtint()
32 * was pretty badly broken, it just wasn't being exercised in ways
33 * which showed it, so that's been fixed. Also, formated the code
34 * to mutt conventions, and removed dead code left over from the
35 * original. Also, there is now a builtin-test, just compile with:
36 * gcc -DTEST_SNPRINTF -o snprintf snprintf.c -lm
37 * and run snprintf for results.
39 * Thomas Roessler <roessler@guug.de> 01/27/98 for mutt 0.89i
40 * The PGP code was using unsigned hexadecimal formats.
41 * Unfortunately, unsigned formats simply didn't work.
43 * Michael Elkins <me@cs.hmc.edu> 03/05/98 for mutt 0.90.8
44 * The original code assumed that both snprintf() and vsnprintf() were
45 * missing. Some systems only have snprintf() but not vsnprintf(), so
46 * the code is now broken down under HAVE_SNPRINTF and HAVE_VSNPRINTF.
48 * Andrew Tridgell (tridge@samba.org) Oct 1998
49 * fixed handling of %.0f
50 * added test for HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE
52 * tridge@samba.org, idra@samba.org, April 2001
53 * got rid of fcvt code (twas buggy and made testing harder)
