string-utils

Synopsis

Contains some basic utilities for formatting and manipulating strings:

• StringUtils.format works similar to the String.Format found in .Net.

Code Example

s1 = StringUtils.format("The {0} is against the {1}.", "chair", "wall");
// s1 == "The chair is against the wall."

s2 = StringUtils.format("{0}: Getting ready to publish", new Date());
// s2 == "Mon Aug 05 2013 21:21:11 GMT-0500 (CDT): Getting ready to publish"

Motivation

Author needed Javascript functionality similar to the String.Format() function found in .Net.
