(ASP) Classic ASP (basic) implementation of PHP's sprintf() function - samclarke

This is a basic implementation of PHP's handy sprintf() written in Classic ASP/VBScript. It's not as extensive as PHP's version as it doesn't support numbered parameters, and only works with %s placeholders, but it's better than nothing, right? Makes for nice clean, understandable code as you can avoid concatenated strings containing function calls mid-string.

(C) Hacky screen clearing through printf - Ktoso

A simple and hacky alternative for calling system("clear"); (which you really shouldn't use...). If you really have to get such an clear effect - use this snippet. Although I realllly recommend using some lib to properly controll the terminal if you need such functions, for example ncurses http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ncurses or pdcurses http://pdcurses.sourceforge.net/ .
