Eric Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: Right. The colon would be required if there's a format specifier. Or an exclamation if there's just a conversion specifier:
"{!r}{:f}{!s:^10}".format('foo', 3, 10) would give: "'foo'3.000000 10 " I've attached a new version that includes format specifiers.
