To the best of my ability, this replicates the printf() function as it exists in other languages. Generally speaking, you write a string with some format specifiers, and then send it the variables, rather than having to concatenate a bunch of strings and conversions together.
%[align][width][.precision]flag
Align supports -, =, + for left, center, and right align.
Width will pad spaces if the result string doesn't fit. It doesn't crop one.
Precision limits decimal spaces of a float. 0 makes it an integer
Flag determines input type, with %s string, %d integer, %f float, %v vector, and %r rotation supported.
A vector or rotation will have pad/align/precision applied to each of its sub-parts, rather than the whole thing. This just made more sense to me. And yes technically, this is sprintf, but I did add a printf function to ownersay the results.
Code
string pad(string value, integer width, string alignment)
{
integer len = llStringLength(value);
if (width > len)
{
string spacers = " ";
while (llStringLength(spacers) < width-len) // This works fastest with a maxed width constant, but can be dynamic
spacers += spacers; // Expand spacers while necessary
spacers = llGetSubString(spacers, 0, width-len-1);
if (alignment == "-") // left align
return value+spacers;
else if (alignment == "+") // right align
return spacers+value;
else if (alignment == "=") // center align
return llInsertString(spacers, (width-len)/2, value);
}
return value;
}
string fix(float value, integer precision)
{//Set the decimal precision of a float. Technically only affects decimal places
if (precision < 1) precision = -1;
if (precision > 6) precision = 6;
return llGetSubString((string)value, 0, precision-7);
}
printf(string input, list values)
{
llOwnerSay(sprintf(input, values));
}
string sprintf(string input, list values)
{
integer iValue; // Which value will replace
integer iValues = llGetListLength(values); // Number of values to replace
for (iValue = 0; iValue < iValues; iValue++)
{
integer index = llSubStringIndex(input, "%"); // "%=99.9v " tag found
if (~index)
{
string buffer = llGetSubString(input, index, index+12); // A few chars past % into a buffer
integer bufferLen = llSubStringIndex(buffer, " "); // A space or newline ends buffer
if (!~bufferLen)
bufferLen = llSubStringIndex(buffer, "\n");
buffer = llGetSubString(buffer, 0, bufferLen); // Trim buffer to new length

integer dot = llSubStringIndex(buffer, "."); // Location of period, if any
if (~dot) // If there is a dot, the integer which follows is our precision

} // Because of typecasting in a list, "s" and "d" are identical, so catch all at the end
