{ return substr(s,1,f-1) sprintf("%-*s", t-f+1, v) substr(s,t+1) }
NR<=10 {... (3 Replies)
Hi Forum.
I tried searching for a solution using the internet search but I haven't been able to find any solution for what I'm trying to accomplish.

library ``libxo''

void
xo_message_hcv(xo_handle_t *xop, int code, const char *fmt, va_list vap);
DESCRIPTION
Many programs make use of the standard library functions err(3) and warn(3) to generate errors and warnings for the user. libxo wants to
pass that information via the current output style, and provides compatible functions to allow this.
These functions display the program name, a colon, a formatted message based on the arguments, and then optionally a colon and an error mes-
sage associated with either errno or the code parameter.
EXAMPLE:
if (open(filename, O_RDONLY) < 0)
xo_err(1, "cannot open file '%s'", filename);
