Re:char Str[255] (Score 1)

I realise you probably can't use this trick, but I ran into some of the same issue when building my own functions that used varargs... How to allocate enough space for the return buffer w/o knowing how much space you'd need....

Luckily, you can pass a size to vsnprintf(), and it will return the number of bytes needed if it's more than 'size':

void sys_log (bool s_time, Log_Type type, Log_Level lev, char *fmt, ...) {
    char buf1[2];
    char *buf;
    va_list args;

    va_start (args, fmt);
    num = vsnprintf (buf1, 1, fmt, args);
    buf = malloc (num + 2);
    vsnprintf (buf, num + 1, fmt, args);
    va_end (args); ...
}
