  34 Like @code{sprintf}, but instead of passing a pointer to a buffer, you
  35 pass a pointer to a pointer.  This function will compute the size of
  36 the buffer needed, allocate memory with @code{malloc}, and store a
  37 pointer to the allocated memory in @code{*@var{resptr}}.  The value
  38 returned is the same as @code{sprintf} would return.  If memory could
  39 not be allocated, minus one is returned and @code{NULL} is stored in
  40 @code{*@var{resptr}}.
