Good advice.  I shall strive harder to follow it in the future.  I was
confused; itoa() is the function I was thinking of.

In a DCE/C++ environment, it's a lot easier to go without stdio.h.
For reasons unknown to me at the moment, the HP systems here need to
be linked with static libraries.  I think it has something to do with
DCE compatibility, but I'm not by any means sure.
