with an entry mentioning that they were not implemented yet. The XSI
%S and %C synoyms have not been added.

While I was at it, fixed a lot more found by ispell that I
could identify with certainty to be errors. All of these
were in comments or text, not in actual code.

supplemented with an asprintf() example soon.

- New length modifiers: hh, j, t, z.
- New flag: '. Note that %'f is not yet implemented.
- Use "inf"/"nan" for efg formats, "INF"/"NAN" for EFG formats.
- Implemented %q in terms of %ll; if "quad_t" is not "long long"
%q will break.
Still to do:
- %C, %S, %lc, %ls (wide character support)
- %'f (thousands in integer portion of %f)
- %a/%A (exact hex representation of floating-point numbers)

for passing to realloc() as-is (ie. either a NULL pointer or a valid pointer).

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;
.\" $Id$
.\"
If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

more cleanly integrated with stdio. This should be faster and cleaner
since it doesn't memcpy() the data into a seperate buffer. This lets
stdio allocate and manage the buffer and then hand it over to the user.

a manner consistent with other implementations. Its done in a way that
adds only a tiny amount of overhead when positional arguments are not used.
I also have a test program to go with this, but don't know where it belongs
in the tree.
