+@defun format destination format-string . arguments
+An almost complete implementation of Common LISP format description
+according to the CL reference book @cite{Common LISP} from Guy L.
+Steele, Digital Press.  Backward compatible to most of the available
+Scheme format implementations.
+
+Returns @code{#t}, @code{#f} or a string; has side effect of printing
+according to @var{format-string}.  If @var{destination} is @code{#t},
+the output is to the current output port and @code{#t} is returned.  If
+@var{destination} is @code{#f}, a formatted string is returned as the
+result of the call.  NEW: If @var{destination} is a string,
+@var{destination} is regarded as the format string; @var{format-string} is
+then the first argument and the output is returned as a string. If
+@var{destination} is a number, the output is to the current error port
+if available by the implementation. Otherwise @var{destination} must be
+an output port and @code{#t} is returned.@refill
+
+@var{format-string} must be a string.  In case of a formatting error
+format returns @code{#f} and prints a message on the current output or
+error port.  Characters are output as if the string were output by the
+@code{display} function with the exception of those prefixed by a tilde
+(~).  For a detailed description of the @var{format-string} syntax
+please consult a Common LISP format reference manual.  For a test suite
+to verify this format implementation load @file{formatst.scm}. Please
+send bug reports to @code{lutzeb@@cs.tu-berlin.de}.
+
+Note: @code{format} is not reentrant, i.e. only one @code{format}-call
+may be executed at a time.

+@subsection Format Specification (Format version 3.0)
+
+Please consult a Common LISP format reference manual for a detailed
+description of the format string syntax.  For a demonstration of the
+implemented directives see @file{formatst.scm}.@refill
+
+This implementation supports directive parameters and modifiers
+(@code{:} and @code{@@} characters). Multiple parameters must be
+separated by a comma (@code{,}).  Parameters can be numerical parameters
+(positive or negative), character parameters (prefixed by a quote
+character (@code{'}), variable parameters (@code{v}), number of rest
+arguments parameter (@code{#}), empty and default parameters.  Directive
+characters are case independent. The general form of a directive
+is:@refill
+
+@noindent
+@var{directive} ::= ~@{@var{directive-parameter},@}[:][@@]@var{directive-character}
+
+@noindent
+@var{directive-parameter} ::= [ [-|+]@{0-9@}+ | '@var{character} | v | # ]
+
+
+@subsubsection Implemented CL Format Control Directives

+control directive characters. Lowercase characters represent control
+directive parameter descriptions.

+format it accordingly.
+@end table
+
+@subsubsection Configuration Variables
+
+Format has some configuration variables at the beginning of
+@file{format.scm} to suit the systems and users needs. There should be
+no modification necessary for the configuration that comes with SLIB.
+If modification is desired the variable should be set after the format
+code is loaded. Format detects automatically if the running scheme
+system implements floating point numbers and complex numbers.
+
+@table @asis
+
+@item @var{format:symbol-case-conv}
+Symbols are converted by @code{symbol->string} so the case type of the
+printed symbols is implementation dependent.
+@code{format:symbol-case-conv} is a one arg closure which is either
+@code{#f} (no conversion), @code{string-upcase}, @code{string-downcase}
+or @code{string-capitalize}. (default @code{#f})
+
+@item @var{format:iobj-case-conv}
+As @var{format:symbol-case-conv} but applies for the representation of
+implementation internal objects. (default @code{#f})
+
+@item @var{format:expch}
+The character prefixing the exponent value in @code{~E} printing. (default
+@code{#\E})
+
+@end table
+
+@subsubsection Compatibility With Other Format Implementations
+
+@table @asis
+@item SLIB format 2.x:
+See @file{format.doc}.
+
+@item SLIB format 1.4:
+Downward compatible except for padding support and @code{~A}, @code{~S},
+@code{~P}, @code{~X} uppercase printing.  SLIB format 1.4 uses C-style
+@code{printf} padding support which is completely replaced by the CL
+@code{format} padding style.
+
+@item MIT C-Scheme 7.1:
+Downward compatible except for @code{~}, which is not documented
+(ignores all characters inside the format string up to a newline
+character).  (7.1 implements @code{~a}, @code{~s},
+~@var{newline}, @code{~~}, @code{~%}, numerical and variable
+parameters and @code{:/@@} modifiers in the CL sense).@refill
+
+@item Elk 1.5/2.0:
+Downward compatible except for @code{~A} and @code{~S} which print in
+uppercase.  (Elk implements @code{~a}, @code{~s}, @code{~~}, and
+@code{~%} (no directive parameters or modifiers)).@refill
+
+@item Scheme->C 01nov91:
+Downward compatible except for an optional destination parameter: S2C
+accepts a format call without a destination which returns a formatted
+string. This is equivalent to a #f destination in S2C. (S2C implements
+@code{~a}, @code{~s}, @code{~c}, @code{~%}, and @code{~~} (no directive
+parameters or modifiers)).@refill
+
+@end table
+
+This implementation of format is solely useful in the SLIB context
+because it requires other components provided by SLIB.@refill
