I don't know if someone wrote this one for format string. But there's
Python3-like string template in Artanis, say:
((make-string-template "foo ${bar} ${baz}") #:bar "bleh" #:baz "wonk")
I think it does the similar thing.If you're interested in it, you may easily port it from Artanis. But you need irregex as well. https://github.com/NalaGinrut/artanis/blob/master/artanis/utils.scm#L411 On Mon, 2015-12-14 at 22:52 -0600, Christopher Allan Webber wrote: > Hello all, > > I've been thinking about what I'm going to do once I hit the need for > gettext support.
