qsprintf <quote1> <quote2> <gamevar> <gamevar> ...

Copies the text of <quote2> to <quote1>, replacing all variable placeholders %ld with their gamevar values in relative order.

An example:

gamevar TEMP 0 1
definequote 254 PLACEHOLDER
definequote 255 PLACEHOLDER

onevent EVENT_DISPLAYREST
getplayer[THISACTOR].actors_killed TEMP // Get the number of kills the player has

redefinequote 255 ALIENS KILLED: %ld    // Redefine a placeholder quote
qsprintf 254 255 TEMP                   // Place our variable into the %ld string
gametext STARTALPHANUM 10 10 254 0 0 ZERO ZERO xdim ydim // And print to the upper left!
