For this application, however, we could just switch from esprintf to sprintf in nsterm.m. (The stated reason for using esprintf was in case the string is longer than 2 GiB but I think we would have bigger problems if a frame title ever becomes that long.) > > OK for master? (Also fixed the unsightly 'x' while at it) Like I said: I'd prefer to fix the problem in doprnt.c, rather than sweep it under the carpet.
