   format the information it displays.  This module provides
   housing for all these string functions.

   Convert an integer `val' to a null terminated string `result'.

   If `val' can be expressed in fewer than `prec' digits then the
   number is padded out with zeros (if pad is true) or spaces
   (if pad is false).

/*
   Convert a float `fval' to a null terminated string `result'.

   most significat fractional digits are printed.
   
   The integer part will be padded with zeros (if pad is true) or
