The rest of the characters are sorted alphabetically. If it's in a different location because it closely relates to "%d", it should go directly under "%d" and *not* between "%E" and "%f" which is where it is now. For bonus points have the table sorted alphabetically as it is (fix "%u") and add a separate table that groups them by how the type is treated (int, float, string). This second table wouldn't need to duplicate all of the descriptions; it would be used to find all the int-related codes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64371&edit=1
