Broken right-padding in float code

[Deleted user]

Test case: printf("a%-5.1f", 0.5); should print a0.5 .

The float code uses the absolute position to compute the amount of padding:

It should use the index within the text produced by the format specifier, like the integer padding code does.

Hello Vincent,
thanks a lot for finding this bug!
You are right, as a matter of fact, the index position is wrong in _ftoa. Good catch.
Anyway, your above test case should return two spaces at the end.

printf("a%-5.1f", 0.5) should print "a0.5  "
printf("a%-5.1fend", 0.5) should print "a0.5  end"
