Nope. There are no far pointers in 32-bit Windows. It's a legacy thing. Just like LPSTR is a "long" pointer to string - yet there is no such thing as 'long' pointer anymore. > a) we DO need to handle the F modifier Sure. > b) it is probably used to format a FAR pointer (0x1234:0x5678) Nope. There's no difference between %Fp and %p anymore (not in win32), just like there is no difference between, say, PWORD and LPWORD. > c) it should NOT be confused in any way with the lower-case-only float type > specifier Sure.
