-.th PRINTF III 9/17/73
-.sh NAME
-printf \*- formatted print
-.sh SYNOPSIS
-.ft B
-printf(format, arg\s6\d1\u\s10, ...);
-.br
-char *format;
-.ft R
-.sh DESCRIPTION
-.it Printf
-converts, formats, and prints its arguments after the first
-under control of the first argument.
-The first argument is a character string
-which contains
-two types of objects:
-plain characters, which are simply copied to the
-output stream,
-and conversion specifications,
-each of which causes conversion and printing
-of the next successive argument to
-.it printf.
-.s3
-Each conversion specification is introduced by
-the character \fB%\fR.
-Following the \fB%\fR, there may be
-.s3
-.lp +6 2
-\*- an optional minus sign `\*-' which specifies
-.it "left adjustment"
-of the converted argument
-in the
-indicated field;
-.s3
-.lp +6 2
-\*- an optional digit string specifying a
-.it "field width;"
-if the converted argument has fewer characters
-than the field width
-it will be blank-padded on the left (or right,
-if the left-adjustment indicator has been
-given) to make up the field width;
-.s3
-.lp +6 2
-\*- an optional period ``\fB.\fR'' which serves to
-separate the field width from the
-next digit string;
-.s3
-.lp +6 2
-\*- an optional digit string
-.it "(precision)"
-which specifies
-the number of digits to appear after the
-decimal point, for e- and f-conversion,
-or the maximum number of characters
-to be printed from a string;
-.s3
-.lp +6 2
-\*- a character which indicates the type of
-conversion to be applied.
-.s3
-.i0
-The conversion characters
-and their meanings are
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-d The argument is converted to decimal notation.
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-o The argument is converted to octal notation.
-``0'' will always appear as the first digit.
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-f The argument is converted to decimal notation
-in the style ``[\fB\*-\fR]ddd.ddd''
-where the number of d's after the decimal point
-is equal to the precision specification
-for the argument.
-If the precision
-is missing,
-6 digits are given;
-if the precision is explicitly 0, no digits and
-no decimal point are printed.
-The argument should be
-.it float
-or
-.it double.
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-e The argument is converted in the style
-``[\fB\*-\fR]d\fB.\fRddd\fBe\fR\(+-dd''
-where there is one digit before the decimal point and
-the number after is equal to the
-precision specification for the argument;
-when the precision is missing,
-6 digits are produced.
-The argument should be a
-.it float
-or
-.it double
-quantity.
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-c The argument character or character-pair is printed if non-null.
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-s The argument is taken to be a string (character pointer)
-and characters from the string are printed until
-a null character or until
-the number of characters indicated by the precision
-specification is reached;
-however if the precision is 0 or missing
-all characters up to a null are printed.
-.s3
-.lp +6 3
-l The argument is taken to be an unsigned
-integer which is converted to decimal
-and printed (the result will be in the
-range 0 to 65535).
-.s3
-.i0
-If no recognizable character appears after the \fB%\fR,
-that character is printed;
-thus \fb%\fR may be printed by use of the
-string \fB%%\fR.
-In no case does a non-existent or small field width
-cause truncation of a field;
-padding takes place only if the specified field
-width exceeds the actual width.
-Characters generated by
-.it printf
-are printed by calling
-.it putchar.
-.sh "SEE ALSO"
-putchar (III)
-.sh BUGS
-Very wide fields (>128 characters) fail.
