if you want a sprintf that accepts any number of format specifiers, supports %*f, supports %.*f, supports %*.*f, and nearly any other that you think of, I finally wrote an external that supports it all.
[gf/sprintf]
in GridFlow's SVN. (or future releases starting with 9.11)
The things it doesn't do, are :
%ld (makes no sense in pd. use %d instead.) %lld %hd %hhd %lx ... (same thing) %p %n %m (why ?) %1$d %2$*1$d etc (surely one day)

What does sprintf have to do with grids? Also, there is already a [sprintf] in cyclone which is a clone of Max/MSPs.

And it already doesn't support %*d, %.*d, %*.*d ! Half of the point of [gf/sprintf] is to support those features that the other [sprintf] classes don't !
What does sprintf have to do with grids?
Nothing. You still want to bring up your idea of splitting GridFlow in several parts ? I don't care.

ah, now it has something to do with grids.
introducing [#sprintf], sharing almost all of its code with [gf/sprintf] (and with [gf/error] too)

Is cyclone/sprintf missing any of these features?

[cyclone/sprintf %*d] [cyclone/sprintf %.*d] [cyclone/sprintf %*.*d]
all print out this to the console :
sprintf's error: slot skipped (width parameter not supported in a
format pattern)
and naturally anything else with asterisks in their format specifiers.
Actually, [cyclone/sprintf] also silently fails with a plain %05d or %5d, for example, as it converts them back to float, instead of keeping them as symbols.
But if I do foo%05dbar, it's fine (though it produces it as a selector instead of symbol $1... but that is its intention, I suppose...).
But if I do foo%5dbar, then it's wrong again, as it does foo%4dbar instead !
Can you find any bugs in [gf/sprintf] ?

Oops no, it probably does the right thing internally, but then replaced any multi-space sequence by an atom break (that is, it terminates the current symbol or float and starts a new one).

(or anything missing that would be useful...)

I haven't checked yet. How do I get it?

do you have a svn checkout of gridflow ?
then do svn update && ./configure && make
if you don't have one then go see on http://gridflow.ca/
