partcl's plan here was to have some code massage the passed in format string to map to parrot. (Although right now, the code that does string formatting, [format], just does a passthrough.) I wouldn't recommend changing the behavior of sprintf on the fly, it could potentially break the standard library, or other loaded code, etc. -- Will "Coke" Coleda _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
