as a sort of print using...

Code: Select all

Procedure.s x_strex(var.l,format.s)                                 ; convert int to string using a format field, format characters space and -+#.#
  Protected s.s, fl.l, sl.l, *f.BYTE, *s.BYTE, p.l, sb.l
  ;
  ; *** format integer to string
  ;
  ; in:  var.l    - int varar
  ;      f.s    - format
  ; out: .s    - string
  ;
  ; convarert int varar to string using a pattern
  ;
  ; pattern elements:
  ;
  ; '#' - number or leading zero
  ; ' ' - space, number or (when there's no '+' or '-' used in the format) sign
  ; '+' - positivare or negative indicator
  ; '.' - decimal sign
  ;
  ; examples:
  ;
  ; x_strex( 1234,     "###") =     "***"
  ; x_strex( 1234,   "##.##") =   "12.34"
