texprintf(1.1.0)						texprintf(1.1.0)

NAME
     texprintf,  stexprintf,  ftexprintf,  texlistsymbols, texboxtree - Extended
     formatted output functions

SYNOPSIS
     #include <texprintf.h>

     int texprintf(const char *format, ...);
     char * stexprintf(const char *format, ...);
     int ftexprintf(const char *format, ...);
     void texlistsymbols();
     void texboxtree(const char *format, ...);
     void texlistsymbols();
     void texerrors();

     In adition to the above functions <texprintf.h> defines several variables:

     int TEXPRINTF_LW;
     char * TEXPRINTF_FONT;
     int TEXPRINTF_ERR;

DESCRIPTION
     The functions in the texprintf family provide  formatted  output  like  the
     printf  family  of functions extended with a tex-like syntax. The functions
     generate UTF-8 encoded strings and assume that  monospace	fonts  are  used
     (also for symbols, beware of non-monospace fallback fonts).

     Please refer to the utftex man page for details on the tex-like syntax pro-
     vided by these functions. Refer to the man page of printf for a description
     of the format.

     Upon  successful  return the functions texprintf, and ftexprintf return the
     number of characters printed (excluding the null byte used to end output to
     strings). The stexprintf function returns an  allocated  string  containing
     the result.

     With  the	integer TEXPRINTF_LW, the line width may be limited. Per default
     the line width is not limited (TEXPRINTF_LW=0). If TEXPRINTF_LW is set to a
     positive integer, the texprintf functions will try to limit the line  width
     to  this number of characters, i.e., tt tries to break up the equation over
     more than one line. To this end the  texprinf  engine  must  find	suitable
     places  to break the equation.  As it is not guaranteed a suitable location
     is found, the line width is not guaranteed.

     The string TEXPRINTF_FONT can be used to  specify	the  default  font.  The
     available fonts are
     mathsfbfit
     mathsfbf
     mathfrak
     mathbfit
     mathsfit
     mathcal
     mathscr
     mathbf
     mathbb
     mathsf
     mathtt
     mathnormal
     text (default)
     The  integer TEXPRINTF_ERR is an error flag. If its value is non zero after
     a call to any of the texprintf functions, an error has occurred in  parsing
     the  input.  A  call to texerrors() will print the corresponding error mes-
     sages.  A call to texerrors() will print the related error messages.
     The function texlistsymbols()  prints  all  symbols  the  texprintf  system
     knows.
     The  texboxtree(const  char  *format,  ...)  is for debugginbg purposes. It
     takes the same arguments as texprintf, however, its output is a description
     of the resulting internal box datastructures.
