 | SUPPORT_LONG_LONG                      | YES     |  Support long long integral types (allows for the ll length modifier and affects %p) |

+| NO_STACK_BUFFER						 | NO	   |  Define buffers as static |
 
 In the source files themselves, these options become preprocessor definitions with a `PRINTF_` prefix; the boolean ones have value `1` OR `0` for YES or NO respectively; and the aliasing option translates into one of three definitions: `ALIAS_STANDARD_FUNCTION_NAMES_NONE`, `ALIAS_STANDARD_FUNCTION_NAMES_SOFT` or `ALIAS_STANDARD_FUNCTION_NAMES_HARD`.
