Summary: Extensible formatted print library. (Printf with user-defined verbs.) Name: libfmt Version: 2.0 Release: 1 Group: Development/C Copyright: BSD-like Packager: Russ Cox Source: http://pdos.lcs.mit.edu/~rsc/software/libfmt-2.0.tgz URL: http://pdos.lcs.mit.edu/~rsc/software/#libfmt Requires: libutf %description Libfmt is a port of Plan 9's formatted print library. As a base it provides all the syntax of ANSI printf but adds the ability for client programs to install new print verbs. One such print verb (installed by default) is %r, which prints the system error string. Instead of perror("foo"), you can write fprint(2, "foo: %r\n"). This is especially nice when you write verbs to format the data structures used by your particular program. %prep %setup %build make %install make install %files /usr/local/include/fmt.h /usr/local/lib/libfmt.a /usr/local/man/man3/print.3 /usr/local/man/man3/fmtinstall.3
