// NOTE: Below you'll see the function prototypes of rprintf1RamRom and 
// rprintf2RamRom.  rprintf1RamRom and rprintf2RamRom are both reduced versions
// of the regular C printf() command.  However, they are modified to be able
// to read their text/format strings from RAM or ROM in the Atmel microprocessors.
// Unless you really intend to, do not use the "RamRom" versions of the functions
// directly.  Instead use the #defined function versions:
//
// printfx("text/format",args)    ...to keep your text/format string stored in RAM
//              - or -
// printfxROM("text/format",args) ...to keep your text/format string stored in ROM
//
// where x is either 1 or 2 for the simple or more powerful version of printf()
//
// Since there is much more ROM than RAM available in the Atmel microprocessors,
// and nearly all text/format strings are constant (never change in the course
// of the program), you should try to use the ROM printf version exclusively.
// This will ensure you leave as much RAM as possible for program variables and
// data.

// a simple printf routine

// #defines for RAM or ROM operation
#define rprintf1(format, args...)               rprintf1RamRom(STRING_IN_ROM, PSTR(format), ## args)
#define rprintf1RAM(format, args...)    rprintf1RamRom(STRING_IN_RAM, format, ## args)

// a more powerful printf routine
int rprintf2RamRom(unsigned char stringInRom, const char *sfmt, ...);
// #defines for RAM or ROM operation
#define rprintf2(format, args...)               rprintf2RamRom(STRING_IN_ROM, format, ## args)
#define rprintf2RAM(format, args...)    rprintf2RamRom(STRING_IN_RAM, format, ## args)

// *** Default rprintf(...) ***
