Re: Use (f)puts instead of (f)printf when possible.

I don't like this for 2 reasons:

1. I am opposed to gratuitous deviations from the standard coding
practices because they raise the barrier to entry for new people.

2. I prefer names that are not substrings of other names for the sake of
grepping convenience. E.g., I would use `cprint` instead of `fprint' and
`cputs` instead of `print` ("c" stands for CLISP &c)

Thus I am with Pascal and Joerg on this.

However, I don't think this is important enough to warrant further
discussion.

Thanks.
