I am looking for source to a printf-type routine. Specifically, this routine would format to memory as sprintf does, but instead of taking a pointer to the working buffer as sprintf does, I would like this routine to allocate the needed space via malloc(3) and return a pointer to that space. The specific application of such a printf(3) variant would be to eliminate a great many static/constant sized buffers in a program I am writing. -- James R.
