It's a one time conversion, so making the transition "easier"
is less important than making the resulting code readable.
Also, with the standard functions, you won't have to publicize
the new interface if/when you want to use the same technique
in another .c file.
I agree with Jim. fputs is both ANSI-C and POSIX.1 compliant, so it is
better to stick to standard functions.
I see your point (reducing syntax, which is good), but I'd rather not
add a nonstandard name that some readers might think still supports
printf-style format strings. Everyone knows what fputs does, and if you
omit the FILE* argument, the preprocessor will gripe right away. Also,
I prefer to avoid using va_* functions, unless there's a clear need.
However, if you'd rather skip the suggested change altogether,
go right ahead. As I said, it's not a big deal.
If it results in more efficient code, then I would like to have it. :-)
Happy hacking,
Debarshi
