+   Overview:
+
+   snprintf( char *buffer, int len, const char *format,...)
+   plp_unsafe_snprintf( char *buffer, int len, const char *format,...)
+     its horribly unsafe companion that does NOT protect you from
+     the printing of evil control characters,  but may be necessary
+     See the man page documentation below
+   
+   This version of snprintf was developed originally for printing
+   on a motley collection of specialized hardware that had NO IO
+   library.  Due to contractual restrictions,  a clean room implementation
+   of the printf() code had to be developed.
+   
+   The method chosen for printf was to be as paranoid as possible,
+   as these platforms had NO memory protection,  and very small
+   address spaces.  This made it possible to try to print
+   very long strings, i.e. - all of memory, very easily.  To guard
+   against this,  all printing was done via a buffer, generous enough
+   to hold strings,  but small enough to protect against overruns,
+   etc.
+   
+   Strangely enough,  this proved to be of immense importance when
+   SPRINTFing to a buffer on a stack...  The rest,  of course,  is
+   well known,  as buffer overruns in the stack are a common way to
+   do horrible things to operating systems, security, etc etc.
+   
+   This version of snprintf is VERY limited by modern standards.

+ NAME
+     snprintf, plp_vsnprintf - formatted output conversion
+
+ SYNOPSIS
+     #include <stdio.h>
+     #include <stdarg.h>
+
+     int
+     snprintf(const char *format, size_t size, va_list ap);
+     int
+     plp_unsafe_snprintf(const char *format, size_t size, va_list ap);
+
+     AKA snprintf and unsafe_snprintf in the documentation below
+
+     int
+     vsnprintf(char *str, size_t size, const char *format, va_list ap);
+     int
+     unsafe_vsnprintf(char *str, size_t size, const char *format, va_list ap);
+
+     AKA vsnprintf and unsafe_vsnprintf in the documentation below
+
+     (Multithreaded Safe)
+
+ DESCRIPTION
+     The printf() family of functions produces output according to
+     a format as described below.  Snprintf(), and vsnprintf()
+     write to the character string str. These functions write the
+     output under the control of a format string that specifies
+     how subsequent arguments (or arguments accessed via the
+     variable-length argument facilities of stdarg(3))  are converted
+     for output.  These functions return the number of characters
+     printed (not including the trailing `\0' used to end output
+     to strings).  Snprintf() and vsnprintf() will write at most
+     size-1 of the characters printed into the output string (the
+     size'th character then gets the terminating `\0'); if the
+     return value is greater than or equal to the size argument,
+     the string was too short and some of the printed characters
+     were discarded.  The size or str may be given as zero to find
+     out how many characters are needed; in this case, the str
+     argument is ignored.
+
+     By default, the snprintf function will not format control
+     characters (except new line and tab) in strings.  This is a
+     safety feature that has proven to be extremely critical when
+     using snprintf for secure applications and when debugging.
+     If you MUST have control characters formatted or printed,
+     then use the unsafe_snprintf() and unsafe_vsnprintf() and on
+     your own head be the consequences.  You have been warned.
+
+     There is one exception to the comments above, and that is
+     the "%c" (character) format.  It brutally assumes that the
+     user will have performed the necessary 'isprint()' or other
+     checks and uses the integer value as a character.
+
+     The format string is composed of zero or more directives:
+     ordinary characters (not %), which are copied unchanged to
+     the output stream; and conversion specifications, each
+     of which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments.
+     Each conversion specification is introduced by the character
+     %. The arguments must correspond properly (after type promotion)
+     with the conversion specifier.  After the %, the following
+     appear in sequence:
+
+     o   Zero or more of the following flags:
+
+	   -   A zero `0' character specifying zero padding.  For
+	     all conversions except n, the converted value is padded
+	     on the left with zeros rather than blanks.  If a
+	     precision is given with a numeric conversion (d, i,
+	     o, u, i, x, and X), the `0' flag is ignored.
+
+       -   A negative field width flag `-' indicates the converted
+	     value is to be left adjusted on the field boundary.  Except
+	     for n conversions, the converted value is padded on
+	     the right with blanks, rather than on the left with
+	     blanks or zeros.  A `-' overrides a `0' if both are
+	     given.
+
+	   -   A space, specifying that a blank should be left before
+	     a positive number produced by a signed conversion (d, e, E, f,
+	     g, G, or i).
+
+	   -   A `+' character specifying that a sign always be placed
+	     before a number produced by a signed conversion.  A `+' overrides
+	     a space if both are used.
+
+     o   An optional decimal digit string specifying a minimum
+		 field width.  If the converted value has fewer
+		 characters than the field width, it will be padded
+		 with spaces on the left (or right, if the
+		 left-adjustment flag has been given) to fill out
+		 the field width.
+
+     o   An optional precision, in the form of a period `.' followed
+		 by an optional digit string.  If the digit string
+		 is omitted, the precision is taken as zero.  This
+		 gives the minimum number of digits to appear for
+		 d, i, o, u, x, and X conversions, the number of
+		 digits to appear after the decimal-point for e,
+		 E, and f conversions, the maximum number of
+		 significant digits for g and G conversions, or
+		 the maximum number of characters to be printed
+		 from a string for s conversions.
+
+     o   The optional character h, specifying that a following d,
+		 i, o, u, x, or X conversion corresponds to a short
+		 int or unsigned short int argument, or that a
+		 following n conversion corresponds to a pointer
+		 to a short int argument.
+
+     o   The optional character l (ell) specifying that a following
+		 d, i, o, u, x, or X conversion applies to a pointer
+		 to a long int or unsigned long int argument, or
+		 that a following n conversion corresponds to a
+		 pointer to a long int argument.
+
+     o   The optional character q, specifying that a following d,
+		 i, o, u, x, or X conversion corresponds to a quad_t
+		 or u_quad_t argument, or that a following n
+		 conversion corresponds to a quad_t argument.
+         This value is always printed in HEX notation.  Tough.
+         quad_t's are an OS system implementation, and should
+         not be allowed.
+
+     o   The character L specifying that a following e, E, f, g,
+		 or G conversion corresponds to a long double
+		 argument.
+
+     o   A character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.
+
+
+     A field width or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk `*'
+     instead of a digit string.  In this case, an int argument supplies the
+     field width or precision.  A negative field width is treated as a left
+     adjustment flag followed by a positive field width; a negative precision
+     is treated as though it were missing.
+
+     The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
+
+     diouxX  The int (or appropriate variant) argument is converted to signed
+			 decimal (d and i), unsigned octal (o), unsigned decimal
+			 (u), or unsigned hexadecimal (x and X) notation.  The
+			 letters abcdef are used for x conversions; the letters
+			 ABCDEF are used for X conversions.  The precision, if
+			 any, gives the minimum number of digits that must
+			 appear; if the converted value requires fewer digits,
+			 it is padded on the left with zeros.
+
+     eE      The double argument is rounded and converted in the style
+             [-]d.ddde+-dd where there is one digit before the decimal-point
+			 character and the number of digits after it is equal
+			 to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is
+			 taken as 6; if the precision is zero, no decimal-point
+			 character appears.  An E conversion uses the letter
+			 E (rather than e) to introduce the exponent.
+			 The exponent always contains at least two digits; if
+			 the value is zero, the exponent is 00.
+
+     f       The double argument is rounded and converted to decimal notation
+             in the style [-]ddd.ddd, where the number of digits after the
+             decimal-point character is equal to the precision specification.
+             If the precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision
+             is explicitly zero, no decimal-point character appears.  If a
+             decimal point appears, at least one digit appears before it.
+
+     g       The double argument is converted in style f or e (or
+			 E for G conversions).  The precision specifies the
+			 number of significant digits.  If the precision is
+			 missing, 6 digits are given; if the precision is zero,
+			 it is treated as 1.  Style e is used if the exponent
+			 from its conversion is less than -4 or greater than
+			 or equal to the precision.  Trailing zeros are removed
+			 from the fractional part of the result; a decimal
+			 point appears only if it is followed by at least one
+			 digit.
+
+     c       The int argument is converted to an unsigned char,
+             and the resulting character is written.
+
+     s       The ``char *'' argument is expected to be a pointer to an array
+			 of character type (pointer to a string).  Characters
+			 from the array are written up to (but not including)
+			 a terminating NUL character; if a precision is
+			 specified, no more than the number specified are
+			 written.  If a precision is given, no null character
+			 need be present; if the precision is not specified,
+			 or is greater than the size of the array, the array
+			 must contain a terminating NUL character.
+
+     %       A `%' is written. No argument is converted. The complete
+             conversion specification is `%%'.
+
+     In no case does a non-existent or small field width cause truncation of a
+     field; if the result of a conversion is wider than the field width, the
+     field is expanded to contain the conversion result.
+
+ EXAMPLES
+     To print a date and time in the form `Sunday, July 3, 10:02', where
+     weekday and month are pointers to strings:
+
+           #include <stdio.h>
+           fprintf(stdout, "%s, %s %d, %.2d:%.2d\n",
+                   weekday, month, day, hour, min);
+
+     To print pi to five decimal places:
+
+           #include <math.h>
+           #include <stdio.h>
+           fprintf(stdout, "pi = %.5f\n", 4 * atan(1.0));
+
+     To allocate a 128 byte string and print into it:
+
+           #include <stdio.h>
+           #include <stdlib.h>
+           #include <stdarg.h>
+           char *newfmt(const char *fmt, ...)
+           {
+               char *p;
+               va_list ap;
+               if ((p = malloc(128)) == NULL)
+                       return (NULL);
+               va_start(ap, fmt);
+               (void) vsnprintf(p, 128, fmt, ap);
+               va_end(ap);
+               return (p);
+           }
+
+ SEE ALSO
+     printf(1),  scanf(3)
+
+ STANDARDS
+     Turkey C Standardization and wimpy POSIX folks did not define
+     snprintf or vsnprintf().
+
+ BUGS
+     The conversion formats %D, %O, and %U are not standard and are provided
+     only for backward compatibility.  The effect of padding the %p format
+     with zeros (either by the `0' flag or by specifying a precision), and the
+     benign effect (i.e., none) of the `#' flag on %n and %p conversions, as
+     well as other nonsensical combinations such as %Ld, are not standard;
+     such combinations should be avoided.
+
+     The typedef names quad_t and u_quad_t are infelicitous.
