 ** an historical reference.  Most of the "enhancements" have been backed
 ** out so that the functionality is now the same as standard printf().
 **
 **************************************************************************
 **
-** The following modules is an enhanced replacement for the "printf" subroutines
-** found in the standard C library.  The following enhancements are
-** supported:
-**
-**      +  Additional functions.  The standard set of "printf" functions
-**         includes printf, fprintf, sprintf, vprintf, vfprintf, and
-**         vsprintf.  This module adds the following:
-**
-**           *  snprintf -- Works like sprintf, but has an extra argument
-**                          which is the size of the buffer written to.
-**
-**           *  mprintf --  Similar to sprintf.  Writes output to memory
-**                          obtained from malloc.
-**
-**           *  xprintf --  Calls a function to dispose of output.
-**
-**           *  nprintf --  No output, but returns the number of characters
-**                          that would have been output by printf.
-**
-**           *  A v- version (ex: vsnprintf) of every function is also
-**              supplied.
-**
-**      +  A few extensions to the formatting notation are supported:
-**
-**           *  The "=" flag (similar to "-") causes the output to be
-**              be centered in the appropriately sized field.
-**
-**           *  The %b field outputs an integer in binary notation.
-**
-**           *  The %c field now accepts a precision.  The character output
-**              is repeated by the number of times the precision specifies.
-**
-**           *  The %' field works like %c, but takes as its character the
-**              next character of the format string, instead of the next
-**              argument.  For example,  printf("%.78'-")  prints 78 minus
-**              signs, the same as  printf("%.78c",'-').
-**
-**      +  When compiled using GCC on a SPARC, this version of printf is
-**         faster than the library printf for SUN OS 4.1.
-**
-**      +  All functions are fully reentrant.
-**
+** This file contains code for a set of "printf"-like routines.  These
+** routines format strings much like the printf() from the standard C
+** library, though the implementation here has enhancements to support
+** SQLlite.

-** INPUTS:
-**   func   This is a pointer to a function taking three arguments
-**            1. A pointer to anything.  Same as the "arg" parameter.
-**            2. A pointer to the list of characters to be output
-**               (Note, this list is NOT null terminated.)
-**            3. An integer number of characters to be output.
-**               (Note: This number might be zero.)
-**
-**   arg    This is the pointer to anything which will be passed as the
-**          first argument to "func".  Use it for whatever you like.
-**
-**   fmt    This is the format string, as in the usual print.
-**
-**   ap     This is a pointer to a list of arguments.  Same as in
-**          vfprint.
-**
-** OUTPUTS:
-**          The return value is the total number of characters sent to
-**          the function "func".  Returns -1 on a error.
-**
-** Note that the order in which automatic variables are declared below
-** seems to make a big difference in determining how fast this beast
-** will run.
