Hi, I am trying to manage Achaea's new elixir program from a concoction maker’s point of view. I have managed to get various lists and am planning to expand vial ID names by simpler number for pouring, topping, and filling commands and for spoken reference. My list is nice, though I have little idea what %format really does.

These are example prints:

Health Artifact Vials:

vial133434 1 200 sips, 0 to do
vial164685 2 100 sips, 1 to do
vial131045 3 26 sips, 1 to do

Here 200 100 and 26 need a special field.

Empty Artifact Vials:

vial97520 1 0 sips, 2 to do
vial88315 2 0 sips, 2 to do
vial162146 3 0 sips, 2 to do
vial156144 4 0 sips, 2 to do

And here the item (simplified vial) numbers need a field too. Those numbers could become three digits, this is new codes

***

And this is what I have managed to code so far:

#sh %format( " &-15s &-6s", %key @ncount, %val sips~, %item( %db( @BaseVialsAll, %key), 2) to do)

or I think I could say this as,

#sh %format( " &-15s &-6s", S N, N sips~, N to do)

Could anyone offer suggestions?

I confused the term decimal places with the term decimal points, sorry, why it was so hard
