Then if you're using C++:

#include <cstdio>

int main () {
   std::sprintf(...);
}

else, in C:

#include <stdio.h>

int main () {
   sprintf(...);
}

First is C++ standard specific, and includes all declarations of the
second (C standard specific) into namespace std.

The C compiler, but is really a wrapper for all compilers, supports even
pascal if you install gpc

Yes, the command line one

The linker

Argh! What a long message!
