To all those who replied about atof(), sscanf(), and sprintf(), thank you.
I knew about them but for some reason couldn't find atof on our system when
I looked for it (it's there, though, because when I looked into sscanf and
_doprint, it is used, and replacing sscanf with atof works just fine). As
for sscanf and sprintf, it just seemed there ought to be a less convoluted
way of handling a single variable of known type (in the case of sscanf, of
course, there is: atof).
Cheers,
Rich
