NAME

       fmt_fill - append spaces to a string

SYNTAX

       #include <fmt.h>

       size_t fmt_fill(char *dest,
	     size_t srclen, size_t padlen,
	     size_t maxlen);

DESCRIPTION

       fmt_fill appends padlen-srclen spaces (if that number is positive) to dest (which holds srclen bytes).  It truncates the output only if the
       length would exceed maxlen.

       It returns the number of bytes it wrote.

       fmt_fill does not append .

       If dest equals FMT_LEN (i.e. is zero), fmt_fill returns the number of bytes it would have written.

NAME

       wcstombs - convert a wide character string to a multibyte string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

       size_t wcstombs(char *dest, const wchar_t *src, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       If dest is not a NULL pointer, the wcstombs function converts the wide-character string src to a multibyte string starting at dest. At most
       n bytes are written to dest. The conversion starts in the initial state. The conversion can stop for three reasons:

       1. A wide character has been encountered that can not be represented as a multibyte sequence (according to the  current	locale).  In  this
       case (size_t)(-1) is returned.

       2. The length limit forces a stop. In this case the number of bytes written to dest is returned, but the shift state at this point is lost.

       3.  The	wide-character string has been completely converted, including the terminating L''. In this case the conversion ends in the ini-
       tial state.  The number of bytes written to dest, excluding the terminating '' byte, is returned.

       The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least n bytes at dest.

       If dest is NULL, n is ignored, and the conversion proceeds as above, except that the converted bytes are not written  out  to  memory,  and
       that no length limit exists.

       In order to avoid the case 2 above, the programmer should make sure n is greater or equal to wcstombs(NULL,src,0)+1.

RETURN VALUE

       The wcstombs function returns the number of bytes that make up the converted part of multibyte sequence, not including the terminating null
       byte.  If a wide character was encountered which could not be converted, (size_t)(-1) is returned.

NOTES

       The behaviour of wcstombs depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.

       The function wcsrtombs provides a thread safe interface to the same functionality.
