  and now I think what I said above is incorrect.

and now, I think:
  A) both input and output through /proc/* are for os api level.
  B) but both %8s and %s do not change the output interface format (including contents, topology, separator mark, space redundancy).
  C) so it is belong to 'User Experience', not belong to os api.

  welcome any another members to giving suggestions and completions.

  thanks.

  :-)
