.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_vweprintf ()
function is a version of the
.BR printf (3)
function. It prints the string to the standard error
(rather than the standard output), and attempts to
avoid output mangling in case multiple processes are
writting. Additionally, the output is suffixed with
.nf
\fB\(dq %s\en\(dq, \fP<\fIerror message\fP>
.fi
if
.I fmt
ends with a colon
.RB ( : ),
otherwise it is suffixed with a <newline> if
.I fmt
does not end with a <newline>; otherwise, if
.I fmt
is the empty string, the output is suffixed with
.nf
\fB\(dq%s\en\(dq, \fP<\fIerror message\fP>
.fi
Furthermore, if
.I argv0
.RB ( "char *" )
is non-null and
.I fmt
does not start with
.RB \(dq "usage :" \(dq,
the output is preffixed with
.nf
\fB\(dq%s: \(dq, \fP\fIargv0\fP
.fi
.PP
The
.BR libsimple_weprintf ()
function is a version of the
.BR libsimple_vweprintf ()
function that uses variadic arguments instead of
.BR va_list .
.PP
The
.BR libsimple_venprintf ()
and
.BR libsimple_enprintf ()
functions are versions of the
.BR libsimple_vweprintf ()
and
.BR libsimple_weprintf ()
functions that terminate the process by calling
.BR exit (3),
the exit value of the process will be
.IR status .
.PP
The
.BR libsimple_veprintf ()
and
.BR libsimple_eprintf ()
functions are versions of the
.BR libsimple_vweprintf ()
and
.BR libsimple_weprintf ()
functions that terminate the process by calling
.BR exit (3),
the exit value of the process will be
.IR libsimple_default_failure_exit (3),
which is 1 by default.
.PP
The
.BR libsimple_vweprintf (),
.BR libsimple_weprintf (),
.BR libsimple_venprintf (),
.BR libsimple_enprintf (),
.BR libsimple_veprintf (),
and
.BR libsimple_eprintf ()
functions call
.I libsimple_eprint_preprint
unless it is
.B NULL
before they print the message, after printing
the message they call
.I libsimple_eprint_postprint
unless it is
.BR NULL .
The
.I libsimple_eprint_preprint
and
.I libsimple_eprint_postprint
variables are
.B NULL
byte default.
.I errno
may have a different value from when the
.BR libsimple_vweprintf (),
.BR libsimple_weprintf (),
.BR libsimple_venprintf (),
.BR libsimple_enprintf (),
.BR libsimple_veprintf (),
or
.BR libsimple_eprintf ()
function called when
.I libsimple_eprint_preprint
or
.I libsimple_eprint_postprint
is called.
.SH RETURN VALUE
None.
.SH ERRORS
None.
