| Summary : Implements the Perl 6 \'form\' built-in
|
Description :
Formats are Perl 5\'s mechanism for creating text templates with fixed-width
fields. Those fields are then filled in using values from prespecified
package variables.

built-in formatting mechanism. Instead it has a Form.pm module. And a
\'form\' function.
Like a Perl 5 \'format\' statement, the \'form\' function takes a series of
format (or \"picture\") strings, each of which is immediately followed by a
suitable set of replacement values. It interpolates those values into the
placeholders specified within each picture string, and returns the result:
