I have been trying to find a way to fix the format of a floating point number when putting it on a stream. Something like the old C style %10.3f thingie. I could not find anything like it in Squeak, is there a simple way to do it?
There's a goodie (Printf.cs) by Michael Rueger available in the ML archives, e.g. at http://squeak.cs.uiuc.edu/mail/squeak/msg03429.html. It's from the 2.8a days, but seems to work OK in 3.1a as far as I can see.
Also check out http://www.dnsmith.com/squeak/formatter.html, but last I looked, the floating point formatting was disabled.
