Documentation

Own version of sscanf that is a bit more relaxed towards spaces and also accepts quoted strings (the quotes will not be included into the result string).

It supports the following format commands:

%d

integer number

%f

floating point

%b

boolean (0, 1, true, false, yes, no, on, off)

%s

string (with or without single quotes)

%D

list of integers, first argument should be a pointer to an array of integers, second argument a pointer to an integer which will contain the number of elements inserted in the list.

%F

similarly, a list of floats.

Returns the number of successfully scanned arguments or -1 if there was a mismatch.
