no, I didn’t, since FORMAT directives are much more sophisticated and complicated. Scanf is rather simple and plain.

However, the current implementation is still far from perfect as it lacks ability to handle input streams and it is also possible to implement a compiler.

Thanks,
Victor

This is useful and good, but it’s not as useful for those without large prior exposure to C.

This task indeed is more complex and cumbersome. However, there are some Lisp bindings to the librsvg SVG rendering library that can be used solve this task.

On the other hand, having a convenient way to generate SVG might be interesting from a practical point of view as well.

The more interesting part would be the converse: Reading and analyzing SVGs.
