====================

Hacked from xnprintf version of 26th February 2005 to provide only
vasprintf by Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>.

====================


'printf' function family use the following format string:

%[flag][width][.prec][modifier]type

%% is the escape sequence to print a '%'
%  followed by an unknown format will print the characters without
trying to do any interpretation

flag:   none   +     -     #     (blank)
width:  n    0n    *
prec:   none   .0    .n     .*
modifier:    F N L h l ll    ('F' and 'N' are ms-dos/16-bit specific)
type:  d i o u x X f e g E G c s p n


The function needs to allocate memory to store the full text before to
actually writting it.  i.e if you want to fnprintf() 1000 characters, the
functions will allocate 1000 bytes.
This behaviour can be modified: you have to customise the code to flush the
internal buffer (writing to screen or file) when it reach a given size. Then
the buffer can have a shorter length. But what? If you really need to write
HUGE string, don't use printf!
During the process, some other memory is allocated (1024 bytes minimum)
to handle the output of partial sprintf() calls. If you have only 10000 bytes
free in memory, you *may* not be able to nprintf() a 8000 bytes-long text.

note: if a buffer overflow occurs, exit() is called. This situation should
never appear ... but if you want to be *really* sure, you have to modify the
code to handle those situations (only one place to modify).
A buffer overflow can only occur if your sprintf() do strange things or when
you use strange formats.
