Is it available anywhere? I also checked a few other functions in printf.h. But I don't find their manpages.

A friend of mine is working on one, AFAIK for the Linux documentation project. I was trying to free some time to translate it to info. I'll ask him whether it's published anywhere.

More details: - register_printf_function is, AFAIK an old interface and is deprecated, although I'd double-check with people here, who definitely know more than me. That said, it's documented in the libc Info file, or, if you prefer Web browsers, here: https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Registering-New-Conversions.html - these days one is supposed to use the pair register_printf_specifier, register_printf_type; man pages, as I said, coming soon.

No, these interfaces are very much non-standard and not widely implemented. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
