28 @deftypefn Supplemental int snprintf (char *@var{buf}, size_t @var{n}, @
29 const char *@var{format}, ...)
31 This function is similar to @code{sprintf}, but it will write to
32 @var{buf} at most @code{@var{n}-1} bytes of text, followed by a
33 terminating null byte, for a total of @var{n} bytes.
34 On error the return value is -1, otherwise it returns the number of
35 bytes, not including the terminating null byte, that would have been
36 written had @var{n} been sufficiently large, regardless of the actual
37 value of @var{n}. Note some pre-C99 system libraries do not implement
38 this correctly so users cannot generally rely on the return value if
39 the system version of this function is used.
