Formatting wildcards

[Craig Earls]

While trying to answer another users question I realized I need a better
understanding of the wildcards in formatting statements.  These are the %$3
etc.  you see at the end of the register formatting string.  I couldn't get
them to work for me on the command line. Can anyone clue me in on how they
are supposed to work?  I thought they were simple field substitutions from
the first line of the format string.
