	This question probably indicates that I shouldn't be messing around
with stuff like this, but here goes:  I can't for the life of me figure out
how to use exec.library's RawDoFmt() from assembly.  (I don't know C, and 
telling me to learn it isn't a useful answer.)  The autodocs are either Latin
or Greek ;-) and Compute's book doesn't want to talk about the subject.

	I'm planning to use amiga.lib's sprintf() instead- I can figure out
how THAT works; it's pretty straightforward.  Actually, I had wanted to use
printf(), but it doesn't look like there's any way to do that without making
the code Impure, which I don't want to do.  Correct me if I'm wrong- please!

	Email responses are OK; thanks in advance.
