    Softfill. The sequence is 4 chars "%= d": The "=" means softfill,
next the character used to pad the field if value is too short (space
here), and next the wanted value (here "d" as %d description). The value
will be printed in full width, possibly padded, and only limited by what
is on the right. Priority to the right.

    The nearest unpatched sequence would be "%d%> ", but this /hardfill/
can push what's on the right out of screen. Priority to the left. Hence
the "%.40d" limitation generally used as a not always satisfactory
compromise.


Bye!    Alain.
