| 10 | *
|

| 11 | * This function replaces modifiers (very similar to printf) with
|
|---|
| 12 | * a formated version of the argument. Since JavaScript does implicit
|
|---|
| 13 | * format conversion already, this is actually a very powerful tool,
|
|---|
| 14 | * because the type of th arguments to be formated is of no importance.
|
|---|
| 15 | * Implicit conversion means that also arrays and objects can be given
|
|---|
| 16 | * as arguments. A shortcut is available as $-extension of the native
|
|---|
| 17 | * String class.<P>
