   Revision History:

   1.3:
      *  add #include <config.h> ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
      *  cosmetic change, when exponent is 0 print xxxE+00
         instead of xxxE-00
   1.2:
      *  put the program under LGPL.
   1.1:
      *  added changes from Miles Bader
      *  corrected a bug with %f
      *  added support for %#g
      *  added more comments :-)
   1.0:
      *  supporting must ANSI syntaxic_sugars
   0.0:
      *  suppot %s %c %d
