How about using a well-understood English language convention to indicate
optional arguments? Namely, the ellipsis, "...". For example:
printf(char *, ...);
fprintf(FILE *, char *, ...);
sprintf(char *, char *, ...);
Isn't this perfectly clear? I can't see any way that this would conflict
with any other C keywords or usage. Is there something I'm missing?
