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.
