/* Use sprintf() without worrying about buffer size.

   One problem when dealing a lot with texts and strings is the buffer
   handling. Usually a programmer will frequently have to format
   several strings into a new one using sprintf(3), without knowing
   how long the resulting string will become.

   text_easy_sprintf() will solve this problem. The syntax is very much
   like sprintf(), except for that the target buffer is allocated by
   the routine and returned to the caller.

   RETURNS: A buffer holding the formatted string or NULL if the
   memory allocation failed.

   NOTE: The returned buffer has been allocated with malloc(3) and
   should be freed when not needed anymore.

   AUTHOR: Peter Simons <simons@@rhein.de>
