Hi, I am having a little problem with developing a "wrapper" to sprintf.
What I wish to do is write a "dialog_box" routine that takes the
same parameters as printf.  So, I have the following:
dialog_box(cs, args)
char	*cs;
{
	char	buffer[512];

	sprintf(buffer, cs, args);
	.
	.
	.
}
/* anything obviously wrong with this? */

What happens is that only the first arg is formatted correctly.
This is on a Pyramid 9820, OSx 4.0  (BSD universe)
Thanks.
