Arguments
   Stream              A stream handle or alias

Type
   library(format)

Description

    	This is a partial implementation of the format/3 predicate as
	implemented in several Prolog systems.  It simply maps the format
	string to ECLiPSe's printf/3 formats, and therefore supports only
	those formats which are compatible.


Modes and Determinism
   format(+, ++, +) is det

Modules
   This predicate is sensitive to its module context (tool predicate, see @/2).
