This function helps to pad numbers on the left side with zeros so that 
they may be used to create strings used in filesystem names (for example).

manip

The caroline R library contains dozens of functions useful
for: database migration (dbWriteTable2), database style joins &
aggregation (nerge, groupBy, & bestBy), data structure
conversion (nv, tab2df), legend table making (sstable & leghead),
automatic legend positioning for scatter and box plots (),
plot annotation (labsegs & mvlabs), data visualization
(pies, sparge, confound.grid & raPlot), character string manipulation (m & pad),
file I/O (write.delim), batch scripting, data exploration, and more.
The package's greatest contributions lie in the database style merge,
aggregation and interface functions as well as in it's extensive
use and propagation of row, column and vector names in most functions.
