of course that sounds possible, i'm not saying its not that i can't get it
placed (with a little more percaution then needed). what would be nice is
if i could call strNPrintF in one line to print a line of something i want
and put the N'th character in there to block off any over type. thats why
there is strNCat's and strNCopy's but unfortunatly no strNPrintF's
