;TI"F | Negative numbers will be displayed as a two's complement
;TI"E | prefixed with `..f' (representing an infinite string of

;TI"D g | Convert a floating point number using exponential form
;TI"@ | if the exponent is less than -4 or greater than or
;TI"C | equal to the precision, or in dd.dddd form otherwise.
;TI"G | The precision specifies the number of significant digits.
;TI"K G | Equivalent to `g', but use an uppercase `E' in exponent form.
;TI"D a | Convert floating point argument as [-]0xh.hhhhp[+-]dd,
;TI"H | which is consisted from optional sign, "0x", fraction part
;TI"C | as hexadecimal, "p", and exponential part as decimal.
;TI"? A | Equivalent to `a', but use uppercase `X' and `P'.

;TI"D c | Argument is the numeric code for a single character or
