Embedded expressions

[Patrick Brockmann <brock@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ferreters,

OBJECT: Embedded expression and control of format

Is there a way to control the format of an integer?

At page 96 of the manual, there is the following example:
say `3/10,precision=7`
It results 0.3

Could it be possible to have also a control on
the number of digit as in c.
Much better thing would be a format control.

say `3/10,format=06.2f`
could produce
000.30

say `5,format=06.0f`
could produce
000005

Beyond this point, I would like to produce
gif file with ordered name file to be played with
Xanim for example.

repeat/l=1:300 (shade var; frame/format=gif/file=output_`l,format=04.0f`)


Thanks again for any help or possible upgrade.

Regards
Patrick
