I've been tinkering with the code a bit, and found a dirty workaround. I changed all the snprintf's and sscanf's calls using %a to %f. Things compiled and installed fine, and the app (window manager enlightenment dr17, code from CVS) seems to be working fine as far as I have tested, though I am quite sure I'll experience problems sooner or later =) I'll try to link libtrio and use trio_snprintf and trio_sscanf with the %a flag instead of using the %f flag and see if it works better or whatever...
Still... its quite interesting that things are working like they should. %a should give me an hexadecimal fractional while %f should give me a decimal fractional. Things should be really messed up on E17... Well, let's wait and see. On 4/28/06, Giancarlo Razzolini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Invent the wheel over and over is a waste that could be put to some good use. The only place that i believe that invent the wheel is good is when you are learning. After that point, using ANSI functions, is the best way to program correctly, securely and portable.
