printf_escaped

Formats arguments according to format, escaping all string and character arguments in the fashion of escape_text.

This is useful when you want to insert literal strings into XML-style markup output, without having to worry that the strings might themselves contain markup.

const char *store = "Fortnum & Mason";
const char *item = "Tea";
char *output;

output = g_markup_printf_escaped ("<purchase>"
                                  "<store>%s</store>"
                                  "<item>%s</item>"
                                  "</purchase>",
                                  store, item);

Parameters:

format	printf style format string
...	the arguments to insert in the format string

Returns:

newly allocated result from formatting operation. Free with g_free.
