.TH fmt_xlong 3
.SH NAME
fmt_xlong \- write a hexadecimal ASCII representation of an unsigned long integer
.SH SYNTAX
.B #include <fmt.h>

unsigned int \fBfmt_xlong\fP(char *\fIdest\fR,unsigned long \fIsource\fR);
.SH DESCRIPTION
fmt_xlong writes an ASCII representation ('0' to '9' and 'a' to 'f',
base 16) of \fIsource\fR to \fIdest\fR and returns the number of bytes
written.

fmt_xlong does not append \\0.

If \fIdest\fR equals FMT_LEN (i.e. is zero), fmt_xlong returns the
number of bytes it would have written.

For convenience, fmt.h defines the integer FMT_ULONG to be big enough to
contain every possible fmt_xlong output plus \\0.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
scan_xlong(3)
