Hi, while writing lots of QString string fiddling code (keyboard macro
utility) I feel something tugging at my sleeve:
the upcoming C++20, looking at std::format(), it seems really handy, e.g.:
std::string s = std::format("String '{}' has {} characters\n", string,
string.length());
// for a German flavor you can use arg #
std::string s = std::format("{1} Zeichen lang ist die Zeichenkette
'{0}'\n", string, string.length());
// lots of formatting options with a ':'|inside the curlies
||std::string s = std::format("{0:b} {0:d} {0:x}", 42); // s ==
"101010 42 2a"|

Using QString::arg() works fine but it's getting harder to ignore all
the new C++ stuff and C++20 looks to be one of the bigger additions to
the language since C++11.
Perhaps the time has come to think about a retirement plan for QString?
