How is this better? Isn't the same thing accomplished with
sprintf?
sprintf(buf, "$n has arrived from %s%s.",
(door <= EAST ? "the " : ""),
dirs[rev_dir[door]]);
I suppose a new array looks nicer, but I can't see why you'd
need one to avoid the problem you listed. All well, not a big
concern. Just nit-picking, I suppose.
