Hello netlanders,

   I'm working on a device driver, and had a use for the sprintf()
function which I promptly found out doesn't exist in the kernel, and
is just a munged call to printf anyways... A coworker mentioned using
the function ksprintf(), but I couldn't find it either. So,
hence my question.

   Does Interactive Unix, Version 1.0.6 have an internal function
that does the same as sprintf()?

   As a 2nd question, is there a GOOD AT&T manual specifically
written for the 386 Unix environment, covering kernel routines
and their interfaces, and possibly the differences between
versions?

                                   Thanks Much!
                                     John W De Boskey
