Hi,

Printf fucntions are missing an interesting feature
that is changing the order of parameters that are
to be printed.

Exemple:

Printf.printf "%2$s %1$d" "hello" 2;;

prints : 2 hello

Note that it is a feature of the C printf.

I have no idea if this is difficult to implement.

Thanks.

Cheers,
