Acme::StringFormat - Smart interface to sprintf()
This document describes Acme::StringFormat version 0.04
use Acme::StringFormat;
# enable 'sprintf' operator in the scope
say '[%s][%s]' % 'foo' % 'bar'; # => [foo][bar]
I had a desire for a "format operator" of other languages. Take boost C++ libraly for example:
using namespace boost;
std::cout << format("[%1%][%2]") % "foo" % "bar" << std::endl;
Now this pragmatic module provides Perl with a format operator %, which is equivalent to sprintf.
use Acme::StringFormat;Enables the sprintf operator in the rest of the scope;
no Acme::StringFormat;Disables the sprintf operator in the rest of the scope;
Arguments mismatch for Acme::StringFormat(W printf) Too few format parameters or too many format arguments.
Acme::StringFormat requires no configuration files or environment variables.
Perl 5.10.0 or later, and a C compiler.
No bugs have been reported.
