I am always happy to see contributors willing to pick up and run with ideas. It is probably out-of-scope for what you want, but while we are talking about %d, it may be worth considering whether there is something simple we can do to make formatting list-like items more flexible. E.g., even with "%D", you are stuck with the format "foo, bar, baz" for multiple decorations. Some kind of "%join(%d,; )" might work to produce "foo; bar; baz" (or whatever you want). But that may also be crossing the line into insanity, and we would be better to allow some Turing-complete embedded language like lua. For that matter, conditionals might be crossing that insanity line, too. > Regardless of what happens with the conditional expansion I think it would > definitely be a useful addition to be able to print the decorators without > the " (...)" wrapper.

Yeah, I agree it can be separate. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
