Yes, I tried it before %Le because it's the 'g' format I was used to when I had to display some floating-point value but here I prefer the 'e' format in order to have the exact same 'd.dddddde±dd' for all values. In particular I like to always have a decimal point present (not that it matters much, though). -- Luc -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sparse" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
