Hello,

The printf_conversion page <https://help.scilab.org/docs/6.1.0/en_US/printf_conversion.html> tells that the "/"%c" directive accepts and displays an integer value converted to a character"/.
Yet, with Scilab 6.1.0

--> msprintf("AB %c\n", 3)
msprintf: Wrong number of input arguments: data doesn't fit with format.

--> mprintf("AB %c\n", "5")
AB 5

--> mprintf("AB %c\n", "R")
AB R

--> mprintf("AB %c\n", "RB")
AB RB

So, what's the difference between the %c and %s printing formats?

The Scilab 5.5 behavior was the same, except that only the first character of the input was printed:

-->msprintf("AB %c\n", "RB")
 ans  =
 AB R

Regards
Samuel
