[comp.windows.ms] wsprintf is a subset of real sprintf

karl@sugar.hackercorp.com (Karl Lehenbauer) (09/19/90)

Not supported in wsprintf:

	sprintf(s, "%*s", maxlength, string);

...where maxlength sets a maximum length for the string.  You can do a
max string constant, as in "%50s", but not the on-the-fly one Unix and
good std libraries provide...

Yuck!
