FORMAT_STRING(1) FORMAT_STRING(1) NAME format_string() - returns a formatted string like sprintf() SYNOPSIS string format_string(string format, mixed *variables) DESCRIPTION Boggle me why this exists. It comes from the Portals Mudlib, so I must have brought it over when sockets first came out so the example code would not break. Don't use it, it is slow and pointless. SEE ALSO arrange_string(), center(), format_page(), printf(), sprintf(), wrap() Author Descartes of Borg 1
