Hi there!
The current
printf
implementation did not allow me to print a single%
by escaping it with an additional percent sign in front%%
. This is supported in the standard implementation.If I put two, it printed out two. If I put only one, it printed
%<break>
with cutecom (Maybe misconfiguration on my end? PuTTY correctly showed only%
.)Anyway this small pr adds support for it.
I assume that the custom implementation of
printf
is deliberately kept small and need not be compliant with all the quirks of the official rules (for example floats are left out). So feel free to decline this pr if it would add to much bloat.Cheers, Nik
