Arg, I am going crazy. Ok, it has been a long time since I was kneee deep in
perl, but why does this not work:


printf "%-10d bytes", $x;

It does not pad the output with spaces or anything.

if x = 25

this is the result:

25 bytes

I want it tobe:

        25 bytes

Anyone have any ideas. I just scanned thourgh both Programming Perl and the
Cookbook and could not find this.

Thankx,
CC
