of course. Just use str_span() in a loop and replace the underlaying
character in each step until str_span reached the end of the string.
+ o Feedback from http://www.and.org/vstr/comparison.html:
+
+ The printf implementation is internal and based on the Apache
+ snprintf() function, '\'' (thousand modifiers), 'a', 'F', 'Lf',
+ 'lld', 'td', 'zd', 'hhd' , etc. and i18n format parameter modifiers
+ are all completely missing Unspecified precision is broken, as is
+ corner cases for octal etc. also infinity/nan output is not correct
+ with regard to case. Buffer overflows are possible in the integer
+ formatting paths You can have custom modifiers, but only triggered
+ on the system '%' character ... so gcc will currently spam warnings.
+ It also looks like the ISO C std. is completely ignored for certain
+ corner cases. Also note that due to the fact that the strings cannot
+ be resized by the library the printf implementation uses a snprint()
+ interface, this means that data can be lost using the interface if
+ the programer isn't carefull.
