qsprintf <quote1> <quote2> <gamevar> <gamevar> ...
Copies the text of <quote2> to <quote1>, replacing all variable placeholders %ld with their gamevar values in relative order.
You can use a single quote for both placeholders. Also, you can use a single quote to display many different texts at the same time, since using qsprintf in a quote doesn't alter the text displayed by a gametext command used before with that quote.
