sscanf and Gmp.mpq

So maybe what we should really be using then is sscanf("%f"). All we need is the ability to specify an object whose _sscanf() to call for all conversion specifiers (or those marked with a special flag). The _sscanf can see that the expected format is 'f' or 'O' or whatever.

On a higher level of abstraction it is. sprintf("%O") converts an object to a (class specfic) string representation.

Yes, and %O is a theoretically class specific representation back.

But we're talking here of the reversal of sprintf("%f",object) rather then sprintf("%O",object).
