I forgot: I was aware of the current Swift sprintf. But I need a sprintf 
that provides the standard format codes so that I can control field 
width for forming file names from data values.

Swift K's current sprintf( ) is very limited.  Swift T's is like the C 
standard, which is what I need.

I hacked the capability I needed by calling the shell builtin printf as 
an app, but that's not so pretty because I can't call an app with "var 
args".
