</span>Interesting. THis is propably:<br>
sprintf ('%*2$s', $currnr, $totalnrdigits)<br>
<br>
perl 5.20 manual says:<br>
(minimum) width<br>
Arguments are usually formatted to be only as wide as required<br>
to display the given value. You can override the width by<br>
putting a number here, or get the width from the next argument<br>
(with "*") or from a specified argument (e.g., with "*2$"):<br>
<br>
printf "<%s>", "a"; # prints "<a>"<br>
printf "<%6s>", "a"; # prints "< a>"<br>
printf "<%*s>", 6, "a"; # prints "< a>"<br>
printf '<%*2$s>', "a", 6; # prints "< a>"<br>
printf "<%2s>", "long"; # prints "<long>" (does not truncate)<br>
<br>
(in perldoc sprintf)<br>
<br>
SO I am a bit surprised.<br>
<br>
Can you please check what perl 5.22 docs say to sprintf and this case?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
