- This manual page documents the GNU version of pprriinnttff.
- pprriinnttff prints the _f_o_r_m_a_t string, interpreting `%' direc-
- tives and `\' escapes in the same way as the C `printf'
- function. The _f_o_r_m_a_t argument is re-used as many times as
- necessary to convert all of the given arguments.
-
- pprriinnttff interprets `\0ooo' as a an octal number (`ooo' is 0
- to 3 digits) specifying a character to print, and `\xhhh'
- as a hexadecimal number (`hhh' is 1 to 3 digits) specify-
- ing a character to print. It has an additional escape,
- `\c', which causes pprriinnttff to produce no further output,
- and an additional directive, `%b', which prints its argu-
- ment string with `\' escapes interpreted the way they are
- in the _f_o_r_m_a_t string.
