[sc-users] Re: string formatting notation

[jamshark70@xxxxxx]

I won't do a point-by-point now (maybe later), but it just occurred to me
that you could do a proof of concept now, with no changes to the lexer,
using the preprocessor. That is, change the code string

f"a = {{a}}"

into

"a = %".format(a)

... and evaluate the latter normally. These aren't especially hard string
manipulations.

It wouldn't be optimal for performance, I guess, but it would give skeptical
users such as myself a chance to try it and see if maybe we get hooked.

FWIW I don't find f"" objectionable as a syntax.

Perhaps more later.
