No. They are called directives (specifiers are some of the letters used in the directives). Please change it back and read the sprintf spec either in C99 on in POSIX: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/sprintf.html
-------------------------------- Description: The {{rw_printf()}} family of functions (declared in the [{{<rw_printf.h>}}|http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/stdcxx/trunk/tests/include/rw_printf.h] header) extend the similar C99 functions by a number of formatting specifiers for various C++ types. Only a few of these are documented, making the functions hard to use. Documentation for the remaining specifiers needs to be added.

Summary: document rw_printf() formatting/conversion specifiers (was: document rw_printf() directives) I think they're technically referred to as formatting or conversion specifiers.
