fmt_fill(3)		    Library Functions Manual		     fmt_fill(3)

NAME
     fmt_fill - append spaces to a string

SYNTAX
     #include <libowfat/fmt.h>

     size_t fmt_fill(char *dest,
	   size_t srclen, size_t padlen,
	   size_t maxlen);

DESCRIPTION
     fmt_fill  appends padlen-srclen spaces (if that number is positive) to dest
     (which holds srclen bytes).  It truncates the output  only  if  the  length
     would exceed maxlen.

     It returns the number of bytes it wrote.

     fmt_fill does not append \0.

     If dest equals FMT_LEN (i.e. is zero), fmt_fill returns the number of bytes
     it would have written.
