To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com Is there an implementation of snprintf or similar in djgpp? If not I think it would be a good thing to add, as sprintf does not guard against buffer overuns. For those that have not come across it, snprintf, prototype int snprintf(char *str, size_t str_m, const char *fmt,...); does exactly the same as sprintf but stops buffer overun by having the additional argument size_t str_m. I guess it would not be difficult to modify the existing sprintf code, although for reference there is a gpl'd implementation here: http://www.ijs.si/software/snprintf/ although of course being gpl'd it could not be included in libc.
