| Summary | 0000820: Could there be a mode for dynamic column-sizes for column-mode of sprintf? | ||||
| Description | Self-adjusting column-sizes within the limits of the given width would be a very nice feature. At the moment the column mode only splits the given width into equal columns: xeval printf("%#-12.3s", "AAAAAA\na1\na2\na3\nB\nb1\nb2\nb3\nC\n\n\nc3\n") thus gives: AAAAAAB C a1 b1 a2 b2 a3 b3 c3 where element (1,1) squeezes into the second row. | ||||

Is there somebody who likes to dig in the innards of sprintf.c? ;-) |

sprintf() in its current form cannot handle such a dynamic layout. And it is already complicated enough. We don't feel that the effort justifies the benefits. |
