printf( "%#04x", 1 )

[Fred Tydeman]

Subject: printf( "%#04x", 1 );
 
What string should be output by the above:
1) 0x01
2) 0x0001
3) Something else
 
In other words, is the '0x' counted in the field width?  If it is, then
the output is 0x01.  If it is not, then the output is 0x0001.  Current
vendors do it both ways.
