> What is snprintf? It is an 'sprintf' that allows you to specify a buffer limit. There's a couple of flavors that it comes in (and they're incompatible). I guess it's available on roughly half of the compilers people are using now. (I don't believe it's either ANSI or POSIX - but it is present in Solaris). For our purposes, it's not useful - I don't want to truncate strings just to avoid buffer overflow. -- Thomas E. Dickey address@hidden http://www.clark.net/pub/dickey
